1.04x = 988
x = 988 / 1.04
x = 950 <== selling price not including tax

check...
950(1.04) = 988
988 = 988 (correct)

so the selling price is 950 plus the sales tax of (0.04 * 950) = 38 for a total of 988

A function g(x) has x-intercepts at (1/2, 0) and (6, 0). which could be g(x)?
AlexFokin [52]
The x-intercepts of a function are used to express the function into factored form:
From (1/2, 0)
(x - 1/2)

From (6, 0)
(x-6)

(x - 1/2) (x-6) = 0
(2x -1)(x-6) = 0

The function is:
B. g(x) = (x – 6)(2x – 1)
