Answer:

$50.91

Step-by-step explanation:

Let T represent the total cost of goods purchased.

Sale tax = 8.25% of total cost of good purchased.

Sales tax = 8.25% of T

Total cost T of goods mike purchased is;

a sweater for 49.95 = $49.95

and two pair of slacksfor 68.59 each = 2 × $68.59

and a suit for 429.99 = $429.99

T = 49.95 + 2(68.59) + 429.99

T = $617.12

And since;

Sales tax = 8.25% of T

Substituting T;

Sale tax = 8.25% of 617.12

Sales tax = 8.25/100 × $617.12

Sales tax = $50.91

Brilliant_brown [7]
You are correct, it would be a reflection across the y-axis. I am great at visualizing but for those who are not (Not saying you) all they have to do is cut out a parallelogram and mimic the movements.
