Question

Mrs. Quentin spent 4 nights at a hotel in Phoenix while attending wheelchair racing events. When she
left, the bill including tax, was $498.52. At that time, the hotel room tax in Phoenix was 13.3%. What
was the nightly rate for the room before tax?

Answer 1

4x • 1.133 = 498.52

     4.532x = 498.52

             x = 110

So $110 per night
