Total tax
1,000×0.02+2,000×0.04
+27,000×0.05=1,450
So?
-756*x +x =1 ?
-755 x = 1
x= -1/755
or
what two numbers when multiplied equal -756 but when added together equal 1?
numbers are x and y
x*y= -756
x+y=1
rearrange the 2nd eq
y=1-x
substitute
x(1-x)=-756
distribute
x-x^2=-756
solve for zero
x^2-x-756=0

To find the sales tax rate, you need to find what percentage of the base price the difference in cost is.
First, subtract 22.99 from 24.10:
24.1-22.99=1.11
Now, divide 1.11 by 22.99:
1.11/22.99=0.0483
Multiply 0.0483 by 100 to convert the decimal to a percentage:
0.0483*100=4.83
The sales tax rate was 4.83%.
Hope this helps!!
The correct answer would be 3, if im not mistaken
