The sales tax rate is 5.7%. 1. Find the tax paid for a pair of earrings with a list price of $88. 2. What is the total cost of the pair of earrings? (1 point) Responses $0.50; $93.02 $0.50; $93.02 $0.50; $98.04 $0.50; $98.04 $5.02; $93.02 $5.02; $93.02 $5.02; $98.04
To find the tax paid for the pair of earrings, we need to multiply the list price by the tax rate.
1. Tax paid = $88 * 0.057 = $5.02
To find the total cost of the pair of earrings, we add the tax paid to the list price.
2. Total cost = $88 + $5.02 = $93.02
So, the correct answer is 2. $0.50; $93.02.
