Asales tax of 7% of the cost of clothes is added to the purchase price of $36.00. what is the total cost of the clothes, including sales tax? $61.20 $25.20 $2.52 $38.52

The total cost of the jacket was $38.52

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to determine the sales tax. This part of the problem can be rewritten as: What is 7% of $36.00?

"Percent" or "%" means "out of 100" or "per 100", Therefore 7% can be written as

7

100

.

When dealing with percents the word "of" means "times" or "to multiply".

Finally, lets call the sales tax we are looking for "t".

Putting this altogether we can write this equation and solve for

t

while keeping the equation balanced:

t

=

7

100

36.00

t

=

252.00

t

=

2.52

Now we can calculate the total cost of the jacket by adding the sales tax we calculate to the price of the jacket:

$

36.00

+

$

2.52

=

$

38.52

the sum of all the angles in a triangle are equal to 180

so you can add   the 3 given angles together to equal 180:

5y + 2y + 2y = 180

or since all three angles have the same letter, combine the 3 angles to equal 180:

9y = 180
