<span>Christa
went shopping for back to school clothes.
She paid a total of 176 dollars before the tax was added on.
Now, how much will she be paying if the sales tax is 6% what was the total
amount she paid.
Solutions:
=> 176 dollars * 6% to get the amount
=> 6% / 100% = 0.06
=> 176 dollars * .06 = 10.56
Now, let’s add to get the answer
=> 176 dollars + 10.56 dollars = 186.56 dollars</span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the initial price be x
<u>Then the reduced price is </u>
<u>If 5 mugs cost $28.20, we have equation:</u>
- (x - 1.75)*5 = 28.20
- x - 1.75 = 28.20/5
- x - 1.75 = 5.64
- x = 1.75 + 5.64
- x = 7.39
Initial price for 1 mug was $7.39
The answer for this question is 65.099 or when round off to two decimal places, it will be 65.10
