If someone purchases a car and pays $1,500 in sales tax and the ticket price of the car is $23,499, What is the percent sales tax in that state

+25 = x

step-by-step explanation:

here x is the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose legs are 7 and 24.   by the pythagorean theorem, 7² + 24² must equal x²:

x² = 49 + 576 = 625.   thus, x = +√625 = +25 = x

the answer would be 0.54

the answer is b to that question
