STEP 1:
find the sales tax (decimal form)
x= sales tax
Cost + (Cost * Sales Tax)= Total
plug in known numbers
$9.40 + ($9.40 * x)= $9.87
9.40 + 9.40x= 9.87
subtract 9.40 from both sides
9.40x= 0.47
divide both sides by 9.40
x= 0.47/9.40
x= 0.05 sales tax decimal form
STEP 2:
find sales tax percentage
= 0.05 * 100
or move decimal to the right two decimal places
= 5% sales tax percent form
ANSWER: The sales tax is 5% (or 0.05 in decimal form)

If it is winter then it is cold inside
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of angles in a triangle = 180°.
Question 3:
We have 90° + 61° + (14x + 1)° = 180°.
=> 14x° + 152° = 180°
=> 14x° = 28°
=> x = 2.
Question 4:
We have 70° + 55° + (4x + 3)° = 180°.
=> 4x° + 128° = 180°
=> 4x° = 52°
=> x = 13.
