the final cost ,including tax of buying a pair of jeans is 37.82 if the tax was 6.5% what is the pre-tax cost of the jeans

Let x be the pre-tax cost of the jeans.

Then, the amount of tax is 0.065x.

The final cost, including tax, is x + 0.065x = 1.065x.

We know that this final cost is $37.82, so we can set up the equation:

1.065x = 37.82

Solving for x:

x = 37.82/1.065

x = 35.50

Therefore, the pre-tax cost of the jeans is $35.50.
