Answer 6

1. I took 40,000 x .06 then I added 40,000 and got 42,400
2. I didn't fully understand the question and thought $40.66 was the most logical answer
3. I subtracted the deduction the I subtracted 3,050 3 times
4. I multiplied (should I have added after? I'm really confused.)
5/ I also multiplied on this one
6. Multiplied then added
7. Divided
8. I didn't fully understand this one so I multiplied but all I got was 7.3125 so I chose the one closest to it.
9 & 10 I used this online calculator for home taxes and it showed these two answers since I couldn't figure it out.

Answer 8

2. the total price is given, this means the marked price + the tax. If you know the tax rate, this means you can determine the marked price "x" since
x+0.07x = 40.66

Answer 9

7. sales tax is determined by taking the marked price "x" and multiplying by the tax rate (6% or 0.06)
since the sales tax is given as 6.80
in order to get this tax, you multiply x by the tax rate
the equation looks something like this
x*0.06=6.80

and solve for x which is the marked price

Answer 10

8. a bit similar to #2
It says that the selling price is 97.50. This means that this price includes both the marked price and the sales tax (7.5% or 0.075)

it also means that we are capable of determining the marked price which will help in solving the problem

like #2 so we can determine marked price "x" by using the equation and solving for x
x+0.075x=97.50

however, what we want is just the total of the sales tax
which is 0.075x
