Answer:

Total truck cost is
1.13 x

Explanation:

We are given

The price of the truck is x dollars

he also has to pay a 13% monster truck tax

So, total truck cost

= (price of truck) +13% of ( price of truck)

and we get

Total truck cost is


=x+(13)/(100)* x

now, we can simplify it


=x+0.13 x


=1.13 x

So,

Total truck cost is
1.13 x
