Step-by-step explanation:
A graphing calculator does this nicely.
there are many combinations for it, but we can settle for say

I think it is a direct variation because if you divide 9/3, 27/3, 39/13, and 60/20 it will all give you the same number which is 3.
I hope this helps.
Answer
Find out the what was the price of the stereo .
To prove
Let us assume that the price of the stereo be x .
As given
Consumer Math The sales tax in the town where Amanda lives is 7%.
7% is written in the decimal form

= 0.07
As given
Amanda paid $35 in sales tax on a new stereo .
Than the equation becomes
x × 0.07 = 35

solving the above
x = $ 500
Therefore the price of the stereo is $ 500 .
Hence proved
