Question

Leo is purchasing a bike that is on sale for 30% off. He knows the function that represents the sale price of his bike is c(p) = 0.7p, where p is the original price of the bike. He also knows he has to pay 12% sale's tax on the bike. The price of the bike with tax is f(c) = 1.12c, where c is the sale price of the bike. Determine the function that can be used to calculate the final price of Leo's bike by solving for f[c(p)]. (1 point)

Answer 1

Answer: f [c(p)]= 0.784 p

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write a function using the information given:

• Sale price: c(p) = 0.7p
• Tax: f(c) = 1.12c

Where:

p = original price

c = sale price

So, to calculate the final price.

f [c(p)]= 1.12 (0.7p)

f [c(p)]= 0.784 p
