Question

if sales tax is 8.6 % find the total cost, including tax of a car stereo with a selling price of $395​

Answer 1

428.97

Explanation:

The first step is to find the sales tax

tax = original price * tax rate

tax = 395 * 8.6%

= 395*.086

=33.97

Now we need to add this to the original price

new price = original price + tax

=395+ 33.97

=428.97
