Given:
4 large oranges @ 0.75 each
8 small oranges @ 0.50 each
total amount paid: 7.49 including sales tax.
4(0.75) = 3.00
8(0.50) = 4.00
3 + 4 = 7
7 + t = 7.49
t = 7.49 - 7
t = 0.49 total amount of tax paid.
0.49/7 = 0.07 sales tax rate
the sales tax rate is 7%
4(0.75) + 8(0.5) = 7
7 x 0.07 = 0.49
7 + 0.49 = 7.49
4 large oranges @ 0.75 each
8 small oranges @ 0.50 each
total amount paid: 7.49 including sales tax.
4(0.75) = 3.00
8(0.50) = 4.00
3 + 4 = 7
7 + t = 7.49
t = 7.49 - 7
t = 0.49 total amount of tax paid.
0.49/7 = 0.07 sales tax rate
the sales tax rate is 7%
4(0.75) + 8(0.5) = 7
7 x 0.07 = 0.49
7 + 0.49 = 7.49
The given error is T should not have been in the top box, the top box should have had 7.49 in it.
Given:
Cost for large orange = 0.75each
Cost for small orange = 0.50each
Total amount paid = 7.49 including sales tax.
According to the equation,
Cost for 4 large oranges = (4).(0.75) = 3.00
Cost for 8 small oranges = (0.50).(8) = 4.00
Total amount paid = 7.49 including sales tax.
Total amount paid including sales tax = Tax + Cost for 4 large oranges + Cost for 8 small oranges.
= 3 + 4 + t = 7
= 7 + t = 7.49
= t = 7.49 - 7
= t = 0.49 total amount of tax paid.
Sales tax % = Total tax ÷ Total cost of oranges
Sales tax = [tex]\frac{0.49}{7}[/tex] = 0.07 sales tax rate
The sales tax rate is 7%.
Then,
(count of large orange)(cost of large orange) + (count of small orange)(cost of small orange) = 4(0.75) + 8(0.5) = 7
So, (Total count of oranges)(sales tax) = 7 x 0.07 = 0.49
Total paid amount = 7 + 0.49 = 7.49
T should not have been in the top box the top box should have had 7.49 in it.
