Answer:

The sales tax is $3.2 and the total cost is $43.2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 0.08 by $40 to find the sales tax (8% is the same as 0.08)

Then add 3.2 (sales tax) to the regular price to find the total price.

R=2/3t +v...solve for t...thanks

mote1985 [20]

$\dfrac{2}{3}t+v=r\ \ \ |subtract\ v\ from\ both\ sides\\\\\dfrac{2}{3}t=r-v\ \ \ \ |multiply\ both\ sides\ by\ \dfrac{3}{2}\\\\\boxed{t=\frac{3}{2}(r-v)}$
