Answer:

The cost of skirt in all is $48.66.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Gabi finds a skirt that she likes at the store for $45.99.

If the tax rate is 5.8%.

Now, to find the cost of skirt in all.

Cost price = $45.99.

Tax rate = 5.8%.

Now, to get the cost of skirt in all:

$45.99 + 5.8% of $45.99.

[tex]=45.99+\frac{5.8}{100} \times 45.99[/tex]

[tex]=45.99+0.058\times 45.99[/tex]

[tex]=45.99+2.67[/tex]

[tex]=\$48.66.[/tex]

Therefore, the cost of skirt in all is $48.66.
