Question #d8d83

Answer 1

You are getting a decent price for a notebook at a great tax rate.

Total cost is `$3.10`

Explanation:

Your cost will consist of `$2.95` and the tax `=5%=5/100`

To calculate the addition of the tax, you multiply the rate by the original item cost.

`C_t=C+tax=$2.95+5/100($2.95)=$2.95+$0.1475=$3.10`
