-2 = - x + x^2 -4 => x^2 - x - 4 + 2 = 0
x^2 - x - 2 = 0
a is the coefficient of x^2 => a = 1
b is the coefficient of x => b = - 1
c is the constant term => c = - 2
quadratic equation: [- b +/- √(b^2 - 4ac) ] / 2a =
= { 1 +/- √[ (-1)^2 - 4(1)(-2)] } / (2(1) = { 1 +/- √ (1 + 8) } / 2 = {1 +/- √9} / 2 =
= { 1 +/- 3} / 2

Answer: $44.10</h3>
====================================================
Work Shown:
5% = 5/100 = 0.05
5% of 42 = 0.05*42 = 2.10
tax = $2.10
total cost including tax = $42 + $2.10 = $44.10
----------
An alternative is to multiply 42 by 1.05 to get
1.05*42 = 44.10
We get the same answer. The 1.05 refers to 1 + 0.05 where the "1" is 100% and the 0.05 is 5%, so the two combine to 105%, meaning the total cost is 105% of the cost before tax is considered.
