I'm pretty sure the answer is $63.59 with everything added up.

I think the markup makes it more than that, though.

The wholesale price is $15.70 per tab, so for 3 tabs it's $47.10.

I think the final price should include both the markup and the dispensing fee, but I’m a bit confused about how to apply them together.

I feel like the markup is 35% on the total cost, but I can't recall if I should add the dispensing fee before or after that.

I think we practiced a similar question where we had to add the dispensing fee after calculating the markup.

I remember we calculated the total cost by multiplying the wholesale price by the quantity, but I’m not sure about the markup part.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I know DNS has something to do with translating domain names to IP addresses, but I'm not 100% sure if that's the exact technology responsible for that.

Okay, I remember learning about this in class. I'm pretty sure the recommended way to reference variables in Bash is to use curly braces, like ${my_variable}. I'll select option A.
