Answer:
140
Step-by-step explanation:
46+94 = 140
The first thing you do is subtract 2 from both sides to move the 2 to the left side
3-6x=7x
now add 6x to both sides to move -6x to the right
3=13x
divide by 13 to eliminate the 13 on the right side
3/13
Answer: $48
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are told that in Michigan, the sales tax rate is 6% and that an item costs $50.88 including tax.
Let the cost of the item before tax be x. This means that x plus 6% of x equals to $50.88. This can be mathematically expressed as:
x + (6% of x) = $50.88
x + (6/100 × x) = $50.88
x + (0.06 × x) = $50.88
x + 0.06x = $50.88
1.06x = $50.88
When then divide by the coefficient of x
1.06x/1.06 = #50.88/1.06
x = $48
The price before the tax is $48
