If you are buying something that cost $15 and sale tax is 6%, you can calculate final bill trough proportions:
$15:100%=$x:106%
100x=106*15, x=(106*15)/100, x=$15.9 is final bill.
You can also use easier way: $15+0.06*$15=$15.9
Explanation for 2nd way: Cost is $15, on that you need to add 6% of $15: (6%/100%)*$15 and that is 0.06*15.
Look at the pictures it explains the equation step by step tell me if you have any questions the answer is at the bottom
Answer:B) 150
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of rec= L×W
= 10×30= 300
Area of shaded area= 1/2 Base× Height
1/2×10×15=75
75×2 = 150
Area of unshaded part= 300-150= 150
