To get the answer we can use proportion. We know that 4$ its 100% and 4.32 its 100% + taxes.
4$ ---------- 100%
4.32 -------- x
crossmultiply now
4x=4.32*100%
4x=432%     /:4
x=108%
We know that 4.32 its 100% + taxes=108% so to get taxes we have to subtract 108-100.
108%-100%=8% - its the answer.

Answer:

:)

Step-by-step explanation:

well if you take 35x, which is 35 times whatever, + 70, you get y. so the first one is 35(1) + 70 = 105.

so i’ll go in order

35 x 1 + 70 = 105

35 x 2 + 70 = 140

35 x 3 + 70 = 175

35 x 4 + 70 = 210.

just multiply then add 70

hope this helped
