Given : Brandon buys a radio for $45.99 .sales tax rate is 7%.sales tax is a consumption tax imposed by the government on the sale of goods and services.
Let the price of Radio before the sales tax be $x. Sales tax on $x is 7% x.
Price before sales tax + Amount of sales tax= Cost of Radio.
x+7%x =45.99
Or x+0.07x=45.99
1.07x=45.99
Dividing both sides by 1.07.
x= 41.11
Cost of Radio before tax = $41.11
Sales tax paid = 43.99-41.11= 2.88
Tax paid = $2.90 (To nearest cent)
Actually I think it may be C
Answer: It would be (3)1
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, x - 2y = 14
x = 14 + 2y
Now, substitute this value into first equation,
4x + 6y = 0
4(14 + 2y) + 6y = 0
56 + 8y + 6y = 0
14y = -56
y = -56/14
y = -4
Substitute it into second equation,
x = 14 + 2(-4)
x = 14 - 8
x = 6
In short, Your Answer would be: (6, -4)
Hope this helps!
