Answer 1

Answer:

$8080

Explanation:

We're told that the original price of the SUV is $8000 with 1% sales tax.

To be able to determine how much Bob will spend, we have to 1st find out what the 1% sales tax is, then we can add it to the original price;

$\frac{1}{100}\ast8000=1\ast80=80$

So 1% sales tax is $80. Let's go ahead and add this to the original price;

$8000+80=8080$

So Bob will spend $8080 on the SUV including sales tax.
