Cost of the article = $27.50
Amount of city sales tax = (27.50 x 6%) = $1.65
Amount of excise tax = (27.50 x 8%) = $2.20
From my knowledge, we pay city sales tax and federal excise tax when we buy something, so the total cost would be $31.35

Answer:

Therefore, The article costs altogether = $31.35

Step-by-step explanation:

Retail cost of the article = $27.50

The city sales tax is 6%

So, The city sales tax cost = 6% of 27.50

⇒ The city sales tax cost = $1.65

The federal excise tax is 8%

⇒ The federal excise tax cost = 8% of 27.50

⇒ The federal excise tax cost = $2.20

The total city tax = 1.65 + 2.20

⇒ The total city tax = $3.85

Therefore, The article costs altogether = 27.50 + 3.85

                                                                    = $31.35

How many solutions does the following<br> equation have?<br> 7(y + 3) = 5y + 8<br><br> answer:
vodomira [7]

Answer:

One Solution

Explanation:

7(y + 3) = 5y + 8

Simplify both sides of the equation

7(y + 3) = 5y + 8

(7)(y) + (7)(3) = 5y + 8 (Distribute)

7y + 21 = 5y + 8

Subtract 5y from both sides

7y + 21 − 5y = 5y + 8 − 5y

2y + 21 = 8

Subtract 21 from both sides

2y + 21 − 21 = 8 − 21

2y = −13

Divide both sides by 2

2y = −13

2y / 2 = -13 / 2

y = -13 / 2

-13 / 2 = -6.5

y = -13 / 2 or -6.5
