Answer:

B) The equation that can be used to find the cost of the given   coat

     is C + 0.08 C  = 86.40

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price of the coat = $ 86.40

The percentage of sales tax= 8 %

Let us assume the cost price of the coat =  C

Now, the tax is calculated on the cost price.

So, 8 %  of C  = [tex]\frac{8}{100}  \times C = 0.08 C[/tex]

⇒ The tax on the cost price C = 0.08 C

Selling Price  = COST PRICE + Tax Amount

or, $86. 40 =  C + 0.08 C

⇒ C + 0.08 C  = 86.40

Hence, the equation that can be used to find the cost of the given   coat

is C + 0.08 C  = 86.40
