$8.64 -$8.00= $0.64

$0.64/ $8.00* 100%= 8%

The sales tax rate is 8%~

Selling price of a pack of cinnamon scented pencils = $8
Cost of the pack of pencils along with tax = $8.64
Then
Amount of tax taken = (8.64 - 8.00) dollars
                                 = 0.64 dollars
Percentage of sales tax taken = (0.64/8.00) * 100
                                                 = 64/8
                                                 = 8 percent
So the rate of sales tax for the pack of cinnamon scented pencils is 8%. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. You can use this method for solving similar problems without requiring any help from outside.

slope = rise over run = y/x

A (-1,3) slope = 3/-1 = -3

B (1,2) slope = 2/1 = 2

C (-3,-1) slope = -1/-3 = 1/3

2 lines need to be negative reciprocals in order to be a right triangle

negative reciprocal of -3 is 1/3

 so this is a right triangle
