The answer is B.(0.75n+0.55p)+0.0625(0.75n+0.55p)

Answer:

B. (0.75n+0.55p)+0.0625(0.75n+0.55p)

Step-by-step explanation:

Lance bought n notebooks that cost .75 each and p pens that cost .55 each.

Total cost of the things Lance bought equals:

(0.75n+0.55p)

There is 6.25% sales tax so,the taxable cost equals:

[tex]\dfrac{6.25}{100}\times (0.75n+0.55p)\\ \\=0.0625(0.75n+0.55p)[/tex]

Total amount Lance paid equals:

(0.75n+0.55p)+0.0625(0.75n+0.55p)

Hence, the correct option is:

B. (0.75n+0.55p)+0.0625(0.75n+0.55p)
