A cross section is the shape you get when you cut straight through an object Like a prism so
you will get a triangle example:
In geometry it is the shape made when a solid is cut through by a plane. The cross section of a circular cylinder is a circle or a cross section of a pyramid is a rectangle. A two dimensional figure like a rectangle has two dimensions length and width. A three dimensional figure like a building has three dimensions length width and height.
We can put it into one step by multiplying the cost by 1.07 which basically takes into account the old cost of the jacket and the tax
the expression is
original amount * decimal multiplier (1.07) = new amount
100% = 50
10% = 5
5% = 2.5
15% = 7.5
50 - 7.5 = $42.50
