:the cost of a new laptop is $750 which generates a sales tax amount of $37.50 . the sales tax was calculated based on the cost of the laptop. what is the sales tax rate?

37.50 divide by 750 is 0.031746031746032

first anwser choice.

step-by-step explanation:

the greater/less or equal to symbol (> or < with the line at the bottom) is a closed/filled in circle.

-5c + 2 _< _27

subtract from both sides by 2

-5c _< _ 27

divide both sides by -5

c _< _ 5.4

flip the inequality sign

c _> _5.4

the only possible answer that would match the simplified inequality is the first answer choice
