Q. Xavier buys a dog bowl online for $8.50\$8.50. If shipping and handling are an additional 30%30\% of the price, how much shipping and handling will Xavier pay? \newline$\$____\_\_\_\_
  1. Calculate Shipping Cost: Calculate the shipping and handling cost.\newlineShipping and handling = Price of dog bowl ×\times Shipping and handling percentage\newline= $(8.50)×30100\$(8.50) \times \frac{30}{100}\newline= $(8.50)×0.3\$(8.50) \times 0.3\newline= $(2.55)\$(2.55)
  2. Add Shipping to Total Cost: Now, let's add the shipping and handling to the price of the dog bowl to get the total cost.\newlineTotal cost = Price of dog bowl + Shipping and handling\newline= $8.50\$8.50 + $2.55\$2.55\newline= $11.05\$11.05
