Answer:

9.25% - [2, 3]

Explanation:

If someone purchases a shirt that costs $49.99 in Nashville, they would be required to pay 9.25% in sales tax. This would be calculated by taking the pre-tax value of $49.99, then multiplying it by 0.0925, which is equal to the sales tax of $4.57. In total, the shirt would cost $54.56 with the sales tax included [1]. In comparison, the use tax rate is equal to the sales tax rate, so the use tax rate for this shirt would be 9.25% in Nashville, as well [2, 3].
