The coach for a basketball team wants to buy new shoes for her 12 players. Super Sports is offering a 20\% discount on each pair of shoes, which were originally priced $72.50. A 6.5\% sales tax will be applied to the discounted price.

The same shoes are also available on Double Dribble's web site for $54.75. A 9\% processing fee will be applied to the cost of the shoes, plus a shipping fee of $5.99 for each pair.

What is the difference in the total costs of the 12 pairs of shoes between the two stores?
(please show ur work)

$46.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Price for Super Sports:

$72.5*0.8=$58 (20% discount so price is 80% of original price)

$58+$58*0.065=$61.77 (6.5% sales tax added after discounted price)

$61.77*12=$741.24

Price for Double Dribble:

$54.75+$54.75*0.09=$59.6775≈$59.68 (9% processing fee added to cost; round to 2 decimal places)

$59.68+$5.99=$65.67 (shipping fee)

$65.67*12=$788.04

Difference in price:

$788.04-$741.24=$46.8

step-by-step explanation:

always plug in x. in this case, x equals 4.

i'm going to first solve 4(2+3x)

1) 4(2+3(4)) use pemdas to solve.

i'm going to multiply whats in the parenthesis first, so 3 times 4=12.

2)4 (2+12) i'm then going to multiply 4 by both numbers in the parenthesis (because multiplying comes before adding)

4 times 2= 8.   4 times 12= 48

4) (8+48)= 56 (answer)

i'm then going to solve 8+12x and plug in 4 for x.

1) 8 +12(4)

multiplying comes before adding, so i'm gonna multiply 12 and 4.

12 times 4= 48.

2) 8+48=56

both equal the same!
