You purchase a pair of jeans online. You will be charged 6% sales tax on the jeans and an additional shipping charge of $8.95, which is not taxed. Write an expression for the total amount of money you will spend. Be sure to identify your variable. Please help me!!!!!!



Answer :

100% = 1.00 is the cost of the jeans itself
6% = 0.06 is the sales tax to be added
let "cost of jeans" be represented by x
so you will get an expression
(1.00 + 0.06) x + 8.95 = Total Cost
