\n" ); document.write( "The sales tax in one state is \"7\"% or \"0.07\".
\n" ); document.write( "if selling price \"x\", then tax will be \"0.07x\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "then to find the total cost of a CD player with a selling price of $\"x=150\" you need to add the tax which is \"0.07%2A150=10.50\" and you have the total cost of a CD player\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "a function rule for finding the total cost will be\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"f%28x%29+=1%2Ax%2B.07x\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"f%28x%29+=1.07x\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "then you have\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"f%28x%29+=1.07%2A150\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"f%28x%29+=160.50\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so, your answer is \"f%28x%29+=1.07x\"; $\"160.50+\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
