0 $15.00

$57.50

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the cost of the available bicycle before taxes, we need to add another 15% to the original $50. To do that, all you do is multiply $50 by 15%, and then re-add the $50. Work is shown below:

First, change 15% into a decimal:

15% -> -> 0.15

Next, lets find the cost of the available bicycle:

Now add the $50 back 7.5:

Your answer is B. $57.50

step-by-step explanation:

first off, we know that he drove 3.5 hours at a rate of 48 mph.

in this case, we can just multiply 48 by 3.5.

48 * 3.5 = 168
