The total cost is given by the sum of the cost used to buy the dishwasher.

Correct Response;

Given;

Cost of the dishwasher = $543.67

Number of monthly payments made = 12

Amount of each monthly payment = $48.62

Amount charged for credit card purchases = $1.75

Late fees paid = $45

Number of times late fees are paid = 4

Solution;

The total cost of the dishwasher, C, is found as follows;

The charges for the credit card purchase, $1.75, is made 12 times.

The late payment fees, $45, is made 4 times.

Therefore;

Total cost, C = $48.62 × 12 + $1.75 × 12 + 4 × $45 = $784.44

778-550=228

Jupiter's average is 778km away from the sun and Mars is 550 less kilometers away from the sun than Jupiter. So you just subtract 778 to 550 which equals to 228. Therefore the average distance Mars is 228km away from the Sun.

778 = d + 550

778 - 550 = d

228 = d
