Miranda bought a dress for $24.95 and a skirt for $14.95. The sales tax is 9.5%. What is the total cost Miranda will pay the clerk?

Step-by-step explanation:

the total price for clothes= 24.95+14.95=39.90

sales tax 39.90*9.5/100=3.79

the total paid to the clerk will be=39.90+3.79=43.69

it's equivalent, so we can say that its equal.

let's call the denominator x and the numerador is 18 less then denominator, x - 18.

multiply

2.x = 5.(x - 18)

2x = 5x - 90

90 = 5x - 2x

90 = 3x

x = 90/3

x = 30

so:

step-by-step explanation:

5×5×5+2(8)÷2(2)+3(3)

15+16÷4+9

31÷13
