Answer:

8%

Step-by-step explanation:

Tax equals the original amount times the tax rate

We can find the tax by taking the amount he paid minus the original amount

tax = 156.6 - 145

tax = 11.6

tax = original amount * tax rate

11.6 = 145 * tax rate

Divide each side by 145

11.6/145 = 145/145 * tax rate

.08 = tax rate

To change this to percent, multiply by 100%

.08*100% = 8%

Marrrta [24]
The maximum number of shirts I can buy is 2.

14.50 x 2  = 29
14.50 x 3 = 43.5

Two shirts cost 29 dollars, and 3 shirts cost 43.5 dollars. Since $43.5 is higher than the money I currently have, I  can only buy 2 shirts.
