the price of a new car is $48,000. If the sales tax rate is 1/3 then how much sales tax is being charged? What is the total cost for the car including tax?

$6,000 (tax)

$54,000 (total cost including tax)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to figure out what 1/8 of 48,000 is

0.125 is 1/8

0.125 x 48,000 = 6,000

6,000 is 1/8 of 48,000

Now we have to add the tax to the cost

48,000 + 6,000 = 54,000

use that smart brain

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=
