Answer 1

A and E are the two expressions that work

Answer 2

Option A and D are the correct answer.

Explanation:

Price of truck = x

Tax for the truck = 13 %

We need to find how much Camacho pays in total for the truck.

`\texttt{Amount Camacho need to pay }=x+(13)/(100)* x\\\\\texttt{Amount Camacho need to pay }=x+0.13x=(1+0.13)x=1.13x`

Option A and D are the correct answer.
