Q. The state where you live has a

6 \%

sales tax. If you purchase a car for

\$ 9,800

, w will you pay, including tax? (This is a two-step problem.)

\newline

Select one of four

\newline

(A) $10,548

\newline

(B) $10,388

\newline

(C) $10,998

\newline

(D) $10,728

Calculate Sales Tax: Calculate the amount of sales tax you will pay. $\newline$ To find the sales tax, multiply the cost of the car by the sales tax rate. $\newline$ Sales tax $= \text{Cost of the car} \times \text{Sales tax rate}$ $\newline$ Sales tax $= \$(9,800) \times 0.06$
Perform Calculation: Perform the calculation for the sales tax. $\newline$ Sales tax = $\$9,800 \times 0.06 = \$588$
Add Sales Tax: Add the sales tax to the cost of the car to find the total amount you will pay. $\newline$ Total cost = Cost of the car + Sales tax $\newline$ Total cost = $\$9,800$ + $\$588$
Calculate Total Cost: Perform the calculation for the total cost. $\newline$ Total cost = $\$9,800$ + $\$588$ = $\$10,388$
