Answer:

$15.02

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Total cost= $16

tax= 6.5%

let the actual cost of the slippers be x

6.5/100*x+ x= 16

0.065x+x= 16

1.065x= 16

divide both sides by 1.065

x= 16/1.065

x= 15.02

Hence the actual cost of the slippers is $15.02

4x=-18
Sivide both sides by 4
X=-4.5
