They would be 4 more points because it’s less then on their essay but okay yeah
STEP 1:
find the sales tax (decimal form)
x= sales tax
Cost + (Cost * Sales Tax)= Total
plug in known numbers
$9.40 + ($9.40 * x)= $9.87
9.40 + 9.40x= 9.87
subtract 9.40 from both sides
9.40x= 0.47
divide both sides by 9.40
x= 0.47/9.40
x= 0.05 sales tax decimal form
STEP 2:
find sales tax percentage
= 0.05 * 100
or move decimal to the right two decimal places
= 5% sales tax percent form
ANSWER: The sales tax is 5% (or 0.05 in decimal form)
Hope this helps! :)
Hi,
I would say that the answer is 28, but it still doesn't add up because when you multiply 12 by 28 you get $3.36 which isn't enough to meet his total, so I tried multiplying 12 by 29 and I got $3.48, which is six cents over his total. So I'm sorry if it is wrong I tried to help to my best ability.
I hope it helps, have a great day/night!!!
It's B.) The student’s answer is not reasonable. Estimation: 170 + 90 = 260
