David bought 9 t-shirts for $36. The store charges a 6.5% sales tax on the total cost. What will be the total cost of the shirts, including tax?

Total cost of 9 t-shirts = $36

Percentage of tax on the total cost = 6.5%

Tax on the total cost :

Thus, the total tax on the shirts = $2.34

Total cost of the shirts including tax :

Therefore, the total cost of the shirts including tax = $38.34

y < -3

step-by-step explanation:

-3y - 2 > 7

-3y -2 + 2 > 7+2

-3y > 9

-3y/-3 < 9/-3   (change the inequality sign when multiplying or dividing by a negative number)

y < -3
