Tom buys a shirt for $22.00 plus 7% sales tax. His cousin buys a shirt for $18.00 plus 4% sales tax.
a. How much do Tom and his cousin pay for the shirts? Show your work.
b. Who spent more on tax? (3 points)
Is my answer correct:
B: Tom's cousin
**I already know A, thanks for your help!
You are guessing.
1.07 * 22 = tom's price
1.04 * 18 = his cousin's price
then to see who spent more on tax,
0.07*22 = how much tom spent on tax
0.04*18 = how much cousin spent on tax
We could go see by the logical way....
tom's tax is 7%
cousin's tax is 4%
tom's price is higher than cousin's...
hmm... who has more tax?
Oh my gosh, I am so sorry everybody! I meant Tom paid a higher tax.......so sorry!
What is the answer for A?
Delilah is stupid she was wrong and changed her Awnser after leaning the real Awnser and pretended her first answer was a mistake
you guys crack me up
Delilah how would you get those mixed up if you were telling the truth
Just because she got the answer wrong doesn't mean she is stupid. It's okay to get answers wrong it's what makes us human.
@Puro you really are stupid aren't ya? you do realize she/he/ guessed on purpose, came here and put the answer to see if it was wrong or not, then when was exposed tried to play it off like it was a mistake.
When were they exposed? People were legit giving her help me and tacofox13 are bullies and jerks
this the answer lame people who dont have a life yall been should answer but just worry about wrong thing here go the answer for people who need it
to find 7% of 22 which is .7 x 22 that equals 1.54
then add 1.54 to 22.00 to get 23.54
so Toms shirt was $23.54
4% of 12 is .04 x 18 which is 0.72
add the totals 18.00 + 0.72 = 18.72
ADD THE SHIRT TOTALS TOGETHER TO GET $42.26
answer to A: $42.26
