a. $176.17

b. $186.70

c. $190.77

d. $200.26

The answer Is C. Just took the quiz :)

Solve first for the total cost of the item with tax.
Total cost= item +sales tax
                = $175(1+.0775)
                 = $188.56
Use simple compunding interest formula
where
i= .00039 or 0.39%
n=30
Present worth=$188.56

Total cost of the item if charged on credit card= 188.56(1+0.00039)^30
                 = $190.77The total cost of the item if charged on the credit card and paid at the end of the month is $190.77.

i = 2 / - 5

step-by-step explanation:

evaluation of ( 2 - 4 ) ( p + q ) when p = 2 and q = 5 i, by putting values of p and q,                                                                    

0 = ( 2 - 4 ) ( p + q )0 = ( 2 - 4 ) ( 2 + 5 i ),   by multiplying these0 = ( 4 + 10 i - 8 - 20 i )0 = 4 - 8 + 10 i - 20 i0 = - 4 -10 i   0 = 2 ( - 2 - 5 i )0 / 2 = - 2 - 5 i- 2 - 5 i = 0- 5 i = 2i = 2 / - 5
