X= purchase price


Multiply purchase price by sales tax % to equal the amount of sales tax.

(8.75% * x)= $15.75
convert % to decimal (8.75% ÷ 100)

0.0875x= 15.75
divide both sides by 0.0875

x= $180.00 purchase price


ANSWER: The purchase price is $180.00 (to nearest cent).

Hope this helps! :)

I absolutely suck in math so please just help me
agasfer [191]

All you have to do is substitute the values of x.

h(0) = |-3(0) + 5|

h(0) = |5|

h(0) = 5

The answer for h(0) is 5.

h(5) = |-3(5) +5|

h(5) = |-15 + 5|

h(5) = |-10|

h(5) = 10

The answer to h(5) is 10.

I hope this helps!
