If c = the cost of one table, the cost of all 25 tables before sales tax is 25·c

Since the sales tax is 5%, or 0.05, the sales tax for 25 tables is 25·c·0.05

Adding the sales tax to the original cost of the 25 tables can give you:
25·c + 25·c·0.05 = 1706.25
1.05·25·c = 1706.25
26.25·c = 1706.25
c = \frac{1706.25}{26.25} = 65

so the refund for 5 tables would be 5*65 = $325

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer: x = 40.81 or 41

Step-by-step explanation:

A = B = 21

C = 35

Hypotenuse = x

Calculating Hypotenuse:

21^2 + 35^2 = x^2

=> 441 + 1225 = x^2

=> x^2 = 1666

=> x = 40.81 or 41
