Answer:
sales tax rate = 4%
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem formula to express one term in percentage is used
To express x as percentage of y is given by (x/y*100) %
______________________________________________
Cost of item = $480
sales tax = $19.20
we have to find sales tax rate.
sales tax rate is percentage of cost price which will levied as tax .
thus, we have to find sales tax as percentage of cost price.
using the percentage cost as given above
sales tax as percentage = sales tax/ cost of item *100
sales tax as percentage = 19.20/480 *100 = 4%
Thus, sales tax rate is 4%.
It means that if cost price of item is $100 then $4 will be the sales tax for the item.
The answer is not any of the letters. I got x=15/2 or x=7.5. You may have made an error in your question.
Answer:
1. 4x + 6
2. -15x + 11
5. -x + 4
6. -4x + 7
9. 5x - 2
12. x + 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Remove the parenthesis for each one so everything's out in the open. Next, you group like terms. The numbers with variables on one side, and the other numbers on the other side. For example:
x + 3x - 2 + 8
Then, you combine like terms:
4x + 6
That's mostly how you do each one.
