Michael's textbook questions 5,6, and 7

Question 5 (page 148)
Ravi purchased 3 DVD's for 19.99 each. Find the total cost for the DVD's include 5% GST and 6% PST.

3 dvd's= 19.99 x 3 =59.97
tax = 11% 59.97 x 0.11= 6.6
11% = 6.6
59.97+6.6= $67.6 3 DVD's plus tax is total to $67.6

Question 6
A store discounted items by 50% off the original price one week. The following week an additional 10% was taken off the already reduced price. The regular price of a CD player was $85.00. What is the reduced price in the second week?

First week
50% off of $85.oo is 85.00 x 0.50 =$42.5
second week
10% off of $42.5 42.5 x 0.10= 4.25 42.5 - 4.25 = $ 38.25
