Answer:

The value of $73.50 * (7.5% + 1.25%) is $6.43.

Explanation:

The given expression is


\$73.50* (7.5\%+1.25\%)

It can be written as


\$73.50* (7.5\%+1.25\%)=\$73.50* ((7.5)/(100)+(1.25)/(100))


\$73.50* (7.5\%+1.25\%)=\$73.50* (0.075+0.0125)


\$73.50* (7.5\%+1.25\%)=\$73.50* (0.0875)


\$73.50* (7.5\%+1.25\%)=\$6.43125


\$73.50* (7.5\%+1.25\%)\approx \$6.43

Therefore the value of $73.50 * (7.5% + 1.25%) is $6.43.
