Answer:
1, 5
Step-by-step explanation:
-16/4=-4
10/5=2
1/2=1/2
-1/-3=1/3
-1/4/1/2=-1/2
The negative ones are your answer.
The final price is the cost plus the tax.
Since we know the tax and a percent, we can write this as
T = C(1+r)
T = what Graham paid = $87.45
C = cost before tax
r = tax rate expressed as a decimal = .40
Plugging in what we know
87.45 = C (1+.4)
87.45 = C(1.4)
Divide both sides by 1.4
C = $62.46
