Answer:

$12

Step-by-step explanation:

amount of tax = $0.72

percent of tax= 6%

Let the original cost be x

so that

6% of x= 0.72

solve for x

6/100*x= 0.72

0.06x= 0.72

divide both sides by 0.06

x= 0.72/0.06

x=$12

Hence the cost is $12

Karen drives straight south on Interstate 405 from the Santa Monica Freeway interchange going 10 miles per hour faster than Meli
natima [27]

Karen is moving at 81.2 miles per hour while Melinda is moving at 71.2 miles per hour.

<h3>Equation for speed</h3>

Speed is the ratio of total distance travelled to total time taken. It is given by:

Speed = distance / time

Let a represent Karen speed and b represent Melinda speed, hence:

a = b + 10

a - b = 10   (1)

Also:

a = d₁ / 1

d₁ = a

b = d₂/ 1 hour

d₂ = b

Since they are 108 miles apart, using Pythagoras:

108² = d₁² + d₂²

a² + b² = 11664

(b + 10)² + b² = 11664

b = 71.2 mph, a = 81.2 mph

Karen is moving at 81.2 miles per hour while Melinda is moving at 71.2 miles per hour.
