Tv for $500 and the tax is 5.5 what is the original price of the tv

(since there is no percentage given i will provide two alternate answers one including percentage and one exclusive of percentage)

cost of TV inclusive of tax = $500

we first multiply the tax with total amount

$500 * 5.5

= $500 * 55/10

=$500 * 11/2

= $250 * 11

=$2750

original price of TV = $2750

alternate answer assuming there is a percentage sign with 5.5

the amount of tax on TV is 5.5%

we first multiply the  percentage of tax with total amount

$500 * 5.5/100

=$27.5

original price of TV = $500 - $27.5

= $472.5

step-by-step explanation:

"it's not the heat, it's the humidity".   that's a partly valid phrase you may have heard in the summer, but it's actually both.   the heat index, also known as the apparent temperature, is what the temperature feels like to the human body when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature.   this has important considerations for the human body's comfort.   when the body gets too hot, it begins to perspire or sweat to cool itself off.   if the perspiration is not able to evaporate, the body cannot regulate its temperature.   evaporation is a cooling process.   when perspiration is evaporated off the body, it effectively reduces the body's temperature.   when the atmospheric moisture content (i.e. relative humidity) is high, the rate of perspiration from the body decreases.   in other words, the human body feels warmer in humid conditions.   the opposite is true when the relative humidity decreases because the rate of perspiration increases.   the body actually feels cooler in arid conditions.   there is direct relationship between the air temperature and relative humidity and the heat index, meaning as the air temperature and relative humidity increase (decrease), the heat index increases (decreases).
