Answer:
The dealer cost is $ 25762.44 .
Step-by-step explanation:
As given
Car dealer Ben Carter paid 97% of the base price of $22,567.
97% is written in the decimal form
[tex]= \frac{97}{100}[/tex]
= 0.97
97% of the base price = 0.97 × Base price
= 0.97 × 22567
= $21889.99
He also paid 93% of options totaling $3,465, and a destination charge of $650.
93% is written in the decimal form
[tex]= \frac{93}{100}[/tex]
= 0.93
93% of the option totaling = 0.93 × Cost of option totaling
= 0.93 × $3465
= $3222.45
Thus
Dealer cost = 97% of the base price + 93% of the option totaling + Destination charge .
Put all the values in the above
Dealer cost = $21889.99 + $3222.45 + $650
= $ 25762.44
Therefore the dealer cost is $ 25762.44 .
