PLEASE HELP WITH THIS!!

Daniel is now going to buy another new car. It will cost him $22,000.00. The options he chooses add $625.00 to its cost. The car license and registration together cost $40.00. The state where he lives has a 6% sales tax. What is the total cost of the car?

Answer 1

You take $22,000.00 + $625.00= 22,625.00 (which is the sales tax)
Take $22,625.00 x .06=$1,357.50

Then take $22,625.00 + $1,357.50 +$40.00 = $24.022.50

Answer 2

$23985

Explanation:

Given : Cost of car = $22000

The options he chooses add $625.00 to its cost.

The car license and registration together cost $40.00.

The state where he lives has a 6% sales tax.

To find: What is the total cost of the car?

Solution:

Cost of car = $22000

The state where he lives has a 6% sales tax.

So, cost including sales tax =
`22000+6\% * 22000`

=
`23320`

The options he chooses add $625.00 to its cost.

The car license and registration together cost $40.00.

So, Total cost = $23320+$625.00+$40.00. =$23985

Hence the total cost of the car is $23985.
