5% of $50 = 5/100 x 50 = $2.50
Total = 50 + 2.50 = $52.50
The saes tax is $2.50; her total cost of the shirt is $52.50

Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
−3(2x+6)=12
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−3(2x+6)=12
(−3)(2x)+(−3)(6)=12(Distribute)
−6x+−18=12
−6x−18=12
Step 2: Add 18 to both sides.
−6x−18+18=12+18
−6x=30
Step 3: Divide both sides by -6.
−6x
/−6
=
30
/−6
x=-5
To answer this you could do a couple things. 1. Actually calculate both tips and then subtract them. Here is the math ( assuming it is $60, not 60% that you mean). a. 0.15 x 60 = $9. b. 0.0825 x 2 x 60=$9.90. c. 9.90-9.00= $0.90 difference.
The other strategy would be to find the difference on the percents and then multiply by $60. a. 8.25%x2=16.5%-15%. Difference of 1.5%. b. 0.015 x $60=$0.90.
