You can do it! Math students can understand
In order to answer this question, you need to find the tax percentage. The tax varies depending on the location. Perhaps this information was already given to you.
In general, you would find the tax by taking the item cost + (item cost * tax percentage) = total amount
For example~ The unc's cost $190; tax percentage is "x"; total amount is "y"
Remember to type the percentage tax as a decimal. For example 7% tax is equivalent to 0.07
So your equation would be: $190+$190x=y
