Answer 1

The part of the expression representing the amount of tax to be paid is;

0.08(507)

Explanation:

Here, we want to select the part of the expression that represents the amount of tax Deborah has to pay

From the expression, we have ;

0.08(507) + 50h

Kindly note that we can have 0.08 as 8/100

8/100 is same as 8%

when we represent taxes, it is usually a percentage of something

In that case, the tax part would be ; 0.08(507)
