Jim bought a new bicycle for $129. If the sales tax is 8%, how much did Jim pay in sales tax? What was the total cost?

$10.32 is the sales tax.

$139.32 is the total price.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sales tax is 8% of the original price.

First, change the percentage into a decimal, by moving the decimal point to the left two place values: 8% = 0.08

Next, multiply 129 with 0.08:

129 x 0.08 = 10.32

$10.32 is the sales tax.

Then, add 10.32 to the original price:

10.32 + 129 = 139.32

$139.32 is the total price.

  y= -3x is the required function.

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given a table:

x             y

0             0

1             -3

3             -9

-2             6

we can see that the values of y is -3 times the value of x

hence, the function would be: y= -3x.

put the values of x will give the same y as in the table that means function is satisfying the given table.
