<h3>How to solve for the sales tax percentage</h3>

Customers are subject to a charge known as sales tax when they buy goods and services.

It is a pass-through tax, which means you must collect it from clients and send the money to your state or local government. the seller do not contribute sales tax.

The sales tax is first calculated by

= price after tax - price before tax

= 513 - 475

= 38

sales tax percentage is calculated using the formula

= (Tax amount / Price before tax) × 100%

= (38 / 513) * 100

= 7.4074

= 7.41%

Answer

Elena must have substracted 1/2x from both sides of the equation.

Lin must have multiplied both sides of the equation by 2

Explanation

The equation given is

$\frac{1}{2}x+3=\frac{7}{2}x+5$

For Elena to have arrived at

$3=\frac{7}{2}x-\frac{1}{2}x+5$

Then Elena must have substracted 1/2x from both sides of the equation.

That is;

$\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{2}x+3=\frac{7}{2}x+5 \\ \text{Substracting }\frac{1}{2}x\text{ from both sides of the equation will give Elena first step} \\ \frac{1}{2}x+3-\frac{1}{2}x=\frac{7}{2}x+5-\frac{1}{2}x \\ 3=\frac{7}{2}x-\frac{1}{2}x+5 \end{gathered}$

For Lin to have arrived at

$x+6=7x+10$

It shows Lin must have multiplied both sides of the equation by 2

That is;

$\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{2}x+3=\frac{7}{2}x+5 \\ \text{Multiply both sides of the equation by the lowest common mutiple } \\ \text{of the denominator which is 2.} \\ \frac{1}{2}x(2)+3(2)=\frac{7}{2}x(2)+5(2) \\ x+6=7x+10 \end{gathered}$
