The sales tax in one state is 5%. Write a function rule for finding the total cost of an item with selling price x. Then find the total cost of a CD player with a selling price of $110

Respuesta :

the total cost of a CD player would be 104.76

Total Cost = (price) + (5% of price)

f(x) = x + 0.05x

f(x) = 1.05x

So the function is f(x) = 1.05x


Plug in x = 110 into the function

f(110) = 1.05*110

f(110) = 115.50

The item costs $115.50
