Answer:

A. Multiply the purchase price by the tax rate. Then add the result to the purchase price.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of tax is found by multiplying the taxed amount by the tax rate. The customer generally pays the sales tax, so the amount the customer will pay will be the sum of the purchase price and the tax.

How do i solve functions?

Maksim231197 [3]

Most quadratic functions(which is what you have there, to a degree of 2) are solved using factoring and the zero product law. If you can not factor then you have to use the quadratic formula or graph it. However this one can be factored.
It's pretty simple to just factor it by inspection but I use the chart method, if you know decomposition that works as well.
Factoring gives us,
$(2x + 1)(x - 3) = 0$
Then you set each factor to 0 and solve for x,
$2x + 1 = 0$
$2x = - 1$
$x = \frac{ - 1}{2}$
And the second one,
$x - 3 = 0$
$x = 3$
The solutions to this equation are
x = -1/2, 3
