Answer 1

Total cost of Ray's car is $28,908.50

Explanation:

Basic costing of the car = $26,500

Options costing = $725.00

Total price = 26,500 + 725.00 = $27,225

There is a 6% sales tax in his state.

Sales tax = 6% of total price

=
`(6)/(100)` × 27,225

= 0.06 × 27,225 = $1,633.50

Combined of license and registration fees = $50.00

Now add all to the total price

$27,225 + $1,633.50 + $50.00 = $28,908.50

Total cost of Ray's car is $28,908.50

Answer 2

26500 + 725 = 27225

27225 x 0.06 = 1633.5

27225 + 1633.50 = 28858.50 + 50 = 28908.50 total cost
