QUESTION 23 Tamara has $50 to spend on craft supplies. She spends $30
plus a 5% tax at the store. How much change should she
receive?

the answer is $18.5

Step-by-step explanation:

30 + tax is $31.50

$18.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Before Tax Price: $30

Sales Tax Rate: 5%

After Tax Price: $18.50

How can you find how much the sales tax is? Let's say you're buying a $100 item with a sales tax of 5%. Your math would be simply:

[cost of the item] x [percentage as a decimal] = [sales tax]

$450.00 for 6 weeks

or

$300

step-by-step explanation:

$200.00 for first week $50.00 x5 equals $250 plus $200 equals $450.00 for six weeks.

$200 for first week

$200 x 0.10 = $20

$20 x 5 = $100

$200 + $100 = $300
