Mrs. Owens bought two candle holders for her dining room table. She paid with a $100 bill and received $32.16 in change. If sales tax is charged at a rate of 6%, what was the price for one candle holder before taxes?
Drag and drop an answer choice into each empty box below.
$32.00 $32.16 $33.92 $63.76
The price of one candle holder before taxes was

$32.00

Step-by-step explanation:

100-36.12 = 67.84 - That's how much she paid for 2 after tax.

So let's eliminate the wrong answers:

63.76*2 is way over 100 so it's not that

33.92*2 is 67.84, but the question asks before taxes so it's not that

32.16*2 is 64.32, but there is tax so we must multiply it by 1.06. 64.32*1.06 is 68.18

32*2 is 64. 64*1.06 is 67.84. There for the correct answer is $32.00

option 3 . (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

step-by-step explanation:

option 1 :

(4x + 3) + (-9x + 4)

or 4x+3 -9x + 4

or -5x + 7

option 2

(x - 2) - (6x - 9)

or x-2-6x + 9

or -5x + 7

option 3

(5x+ + 6)

or 5x + 1 + 10x -6

or 15x -5

option 4

-4x+2x+7-3x

-7x + 2x + 7

-5x + 7

hence only option 3 did   not satisfy the given simplify expression.
