Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The original price on the item is the price before a markup of 110% of this original price:
original price + 1.10(original price) = 2.10(original price)
X = cost of car before tax
Total cost = (cost of car before tax) + (tax amount)
Total cost = x + 5% of x
Total cost = x + 0.05x
Total cost = 1.05x
The total cost is given to be $14,512, which means
<span>Total cost = 1.05x = 14512
</span>
1.05x = 14512
1.05x/1.05 = 14512/1.05
x = 13,820.95238
x = 13,820.95
The total cost of the car before tax, to the nearest cent, is $13,820.95
Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation:</u>
