Answer:
0.08(50h)
Explanation:
The amount of tax payable over a particular object or goods is always represented as a particular percentage of the total cost of buying or repairing an object.
From the above question we are given the expression,
0.08(50h) + 50h = Total amount Deborah is paying to repair her computer
Note that: Total amount payable by Deborah = Cost (Price or amount) of fixing the computer + Tax
h = number of hours required to repair the computer.
Hence, the Cost (amount) to repair the computer = 50 × h = 50h
In the expression, we have
0.08(50h) = 8% of 50h
Tax is always represented as percentage of the cost of fixing the computer
Hence, 0.08 or 8% of 50 h equal to = 0.08(50h) = The tax Deborah is paying.
Therefore, the expression repesents the amount of tax Deborah has to pay is 0.08(50h)
