The answer is <span>$30.06.</span>


John added 7% of tax to the price before tax which is 100%. So, the price John paid is 107%. If <span>$32.16 is 107%, how many $ is 100% (the price before tax):
</span><span>$32.16 : 107% = x : 100%

After crossing the products:
</span>x · 107% = $32.16 · <span>100%
</span>⇒ x = $32.16 · 100% ÷ 107% = $30.06


Therefore, the cost of groceries before the sales tax is $30.06.

Is 44.65 equal to 44.650
Zina [86]
Yes it is. If you see any zero after the last number after a decimal point and then compare the same numbers but without the zero they are equivalent.

(-b3+ 3b2 + 8) - (? - 5b2 - 9) = 5b3 + 8b2 + 17<br> ? =<br> DONE
zhuklara [117]

Let's solve for x.

−b3+3b2+8−(x−5b2−9)=5b3+8b2+17

Step 1: Add b^3 to both sides.

−b3+8b2−x+17+b3=5b3+8b2+17+b3

8b2−x+17=6b3+8b2+17

Step 2: Add -8b^2 to both sides.

8b2−x+17+−8b2=6b3+8b2+17+−8b2

−x+17=6b3+17

Step 3: Add -17 to both sides.

−x+17+−17=6b3+17+−17

−x=6b3

Step 4: Divide both sides by -1.

−x

−1

=

6b3

−1

x=−6b3

Answer:

x=−6b3
