jose sees a shirt he wants to buy. his friend reminds him that he'll have to pay the price of the shirt plus sales tax.


A formula describing this scenario is t=c+cb

where t= total price jose paid for the shirt

c= cost of the shirt

B= sales tax (percent)

Jose wants to find the cost of sales tax. Rewrite the formula to solve for the percent sales tax

Verified Answer :

In order to rewrite it we can use the next procedure:

t=c+cb 
t - c = cb 
(t - c)/c = b

And there you have the formula done
Hope this works for you
