What is the sum (6x^3 – 5x^2 + 3x – 5) + (8x^4 + 3x^3 + 5x^2 + x + 4)? A.9x^6 + 8x^4 + 4x^2 – 1
B.8x^4 + 9x^3 + 4x – 1
C.8x^4 + 3x^3 – 10x^2 + 4x – 1
D.8x^4 – 3x^3 + 10x^2 – 2x + 9

Combine like terms

Add: -5x²+5x²=0

Now add 6x³+3x³=9x³

Add like terms 3x +x=4x

Now add -5+4=-1

the final amount you will pay is $68.04.

the tip is determined by the pre-tax amount, so we calculate the tip based on the original bill, not after we've added sales tax.

to find the tip:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we multiply that by 18.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 18 = 9.72

tip = 9.72$

to find the tax:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we can multiply that by 8 to get 8%.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 8 = 4.32

tax= 4.32

now we can add the tip and tax to the bill to get our total.

54 + 9.72 + 4.32 = 68.04

total: $68.04
