Answer:

QUESTION 2 -> Correct option: A.

QUESTION 3 -> Correct option: C.

Step-by-step explanation:

QUESTION 2

To find the amount of tax we just need to multiply the tax rate by the original price of the product:

[tex]Tax = 29\% * 53.93[/tex]

[tex]Tax = 0.29 * 53.93[/tex]

[tex]Tax =\$15.64[/tex]

Then, to find the total selling price, we need to sum the original price to the tax value:

[tex]Total = tax + price[/tex]

[tex]Total = 15.64 + 53.93[/tex]

[tex]Total = \$69.57[/tex]

Correct option: A.

QUESTION 3

To find the final value after 2 years, we can use the formula:

[tex]P = Po * (1 + r*t)[/tex]

Where P is the final value, Po is the inicial value, r is the interest and t is the amount of time. Then, we have that:

[tex]P = 10000 * (1 + 0.08 * 2)[/tex]

[tex]P = \$11600[/tex]

Correct option: C.
