Answer:
$ 2.30
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the sales tax rate
The cost of the book is $ 12.99.
So, the tax on the book= 8.5% of 12.99
=1.10
So, the sales tax on the book is $ 1.10.
The cost of the video game is $ 39.99.
So, the tax on the book= 8.5% of 39.99
=3.30
So, the sales tax on the book is $ 3.40.
The difference of taxes on both the items = $ 3.40-$ 1.10=$ 2.30
So, the tax on the video game is $ 2.30 more than then tax on the book.
Hello and Good Morning/Afternoon
<u>Let's take this problem step-by-step</u>:
<u>To find the solution to a system of equation</u>
⇒ <em>must set</em> the equations equal to each other
⇒ and solve
<u>Let's put that into action</u>
⇒ either 'x+3' or 'x-3' equals zero
⇒ must find 'x' that satisify either equation
<u>Let's find the corresponding f(x) to each x-value</u>
<u>Therefore the solutions are (3,6) and (-3,18)</u>
<u />
<u>Answer: (3,6), (-3,18)</u>
<u></u>
Hope that helps!
