The tax rate on a dollar would be .08% you have 4 dollars you have 32 cents tax 4 divided in to 32 is 8. So for each dollar you pay 8 cents.
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the rule of logarithms
x = n ⇒ x = 
let
8 = n ⇒ 8 =
, that is
2³ =
( equate exponents )
n = 3
and let
(
) = n ⇒
=
, that is
=
( equate exponents )
n = - 1
then
8 +
(
)
= 3 + (- 1)
= 3 - 1
= 2
100% of the price = $400
x % of the price = $320
we need to find x
using a proportion
100 : 400 = x : 320
100 * 320 = 400 * x
32000 = 400x
x = 32000 / 400
x = 80
That means the new price is 80% of the previous price.
100% - 80% = 20%
and based on this we can make a conclusion that the discount was 20%
