Question 661969: PLEASE HELP! ASAP! Bob paid a total of $150 for a game that he purchased online. Sales tax is 77 and there is a shipping fee. The total cost includes sales tax &shipping. Find the shipping fee, if the game cost $135 Answer by ReadingBoosters(3246) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Sales tax is ??? The total cost cannot be 150 if the game is 135 and tax is 77
Equation
135 + sales tax + x = 150
x = 150 - 135 - sales tax
where x = cost of shipping
sales tax can be direct cost $7 or converted from a percent
7% would be .07(135) if taxed on game price or .07(135+x) if taxed on game price and shipping
Repost and I will help you with the setup.
