Answer:

0.13

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the amount of sales tax you would pay, multiply the sales tax by the original price of the item.

4.4% × $3 = ?

Percent means "out of one hundred," so 4.4%  is equivalent to 4.4 ÷ 100

To find the amount of sales tax that must be paid, multiply 0.044  by the original price. Round to the nearest cent.

0.044 × $3=$0.13

<h2>Greetings</h2>

Answer:

The tax is $0.12

Step-by-step explanation:

If you can imagine that price of $3 to be 100% of the price, you can simply add 4.4 onto this to find the percentage you need to find of the price:

100 + 4.4 = 104.4

So now you can use the percentage formula:

Amount x \frac{percentage}{100}

Simply plug all the values into this:

3 x \frac{104.4}{100}

3 x 1.04 = 3.12

Now you have the total price and you can simply minus the item cost without tax:

3.12 - 3 = 0.12

<h3>So the tax is $0.12!</h3><h3 /><h2>Hope this helps!</h2>

The graph of g(x) is the graph of ​f(x)​ translated 2 units left.
