X = cost of car before tax
Total cost = (cost of car before tax) + (tax amount)
Total cost = x + 5% of x
Total cost = x + 0.05x
Total cost = 1.05x
The total cost is given to be $14,512, which means
<span>Total cost = 1.05x = 14512
</span>
1.05x = 14512
1.05x/1.05 = 14512/1.05
x = 13,820.95238
x = 13,820.95
The total cost of the car before tax, to the nearest cent, is $13,820.95

Answer:
$18.15
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to find the difference between the two values
what we do here simply is to subtract the second from the first
Mathematically we have this as;
36-17.85 = $18.15
Answer: 5x - 2y = 8
y+1=5/2(x-2)+2
multiply the each side by 2 to get rid of the fraction
2 (y+1) = (5/2 (x-2) +2 )2
2y+2=5(x-2)+4
now distribute the 5
2y+2=5x-10+4
subtract the two from each side
2y=5x-10+4-2
add like terms
2y=5x-8
subtract 5x from each side
2y-5x=-8
multiple the whole equation by -1 to make the 5x a positive
-2y+5x=8
hope this helps!
