Answer:
115
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe the answer is 2.849
Cost of each shirt bought by Brain = 14.50
Then
Cost of 2 shirts bought by Brain = 2 * 14.50
= 29
Cost of a pair of shoes = 29.99
Total amount spent by Brain before tax = 29 + 29.99
= 58.99
Percentage of sales tax that needs to be paid = 6%
Amount of sales tax that needs to be [paid = (6/100) * 58.99
= 353.94/100
= 3.54
So
the total amount spent by Brain including tax = 58.99 + 3.54
= 62.53
I hope this is the answer you were looking for.
Step-by-step explanation:
2 + x + 2x = 14
3x + 2 = 14 (combine like terms)
3x = 12 (subtract 2 from both sides)
Hence the answer is 3x = 12. (B)
