Respuesta :

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Y is the amount of back pack

The total amount is represented by m

If Y is the cost of back pack purchased by Oliver, then 0.7 Y is the tax applicable on the purchase of back pack

Hence, the remaining cost would be total amount with Oliver minus the cost of back pack and the tax applicable on the purchase of back pack

Remaining cost  = m - (y + 0.07y)

Hence, option A is correct
