Veronica lives in north dakota and pays 5% in sales tax. she just bought $90 in groceries, but $35 worth of those groceries were not taxable. what is the total amount that veronica paid for the groceries, including sales tax?

a. $90.45
b. $92.75
c. $94.50
d. $90.28

$92.75 - Apex

Step-by-step explanation:

90-35=55

55*0.05 (which is 5%)= 2.75

2.75 is the amount of taxes

You add the taxes to the total

2.75+90= 92.75

No, the $35 of untaxable groceries, is not just "extra information," it is an important and vital part of the equation. if needed

90-35=x

x(0.05)=y

y+90= Total

Have fun apex kids!!

94

step-by-step explanation:

average the numbers and use a variable to figure out the minimum to get a 90.

(79+94+91+92+x)/5=90

x = 94
