Answer:

Price of Caleb's groceries before tax= $6.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let price of groceries before tax be = $ x

Sales tax % = 2.5%

Sales tax applied = 2.5\% \ of\ x = \frac{25}{100}\times x = \frac{25}{100} x

Actual sales tax paid = $1.60

∴ \frac{25}{100}x=1.60

Multiplying both sides by 100.

100\times \frac{25}{100}x=1.60\times 100

25x=160

Dividing both sides by 25.

\frac{25x}{25}=\frac{160}{25}

x=6.4

∴ Price of groceries before tax= $6.4

mark ordere wome balloons for a party that she is having.The balloons cost $4.50 each and there is a service fee of $12.The tota
ohaa [14]
A general equation to use for this situation is y = mx + b.

For this question, we can assume that y is total cost, m is cost per balloon, x is the amount of balloons, and b as the service fee; so we can set the equation up:

y = (4.50)x + 12

And we can further plug in the total cost to find the number of balloons purchased for the party:

79.50 = (4.50)x + 12

Now we can solve for x (number of balloons):

67.50 = (4.50)x

x = 15

The total number of balloons purchased for the party is 15.
