1. To find the sales tax rate you can set up the equation:
1200x = 72; divide both sides by 1200
x = 0.06
The tax rate is 6%.
2. 6% of 2500
0.06 x 2500 = $150
For Part A, the answer is d.
3. 6% of x is $108
0.06x = 108; divide both sides by 0.06
x = 1800
The answer for Part B is letter d.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
36 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Area of triangle =2 1/4 square inches
Area =9/4 square inches
Height of triangle =1/8 inches
We know that the expression for the area of triangle is
Area = 1/2Base *Height
9/4=1/2*Base *1/8
9/4=Base/16
Cross multiply
16*9=Base*4
144=Base*4
Base =144/4
Base=36 inches
= -15 Multiply both sides by -3 to cancel out the fraction
x = 45
