Answer:

The price of the tv before tax is 410

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = price of tv before tax

tax = x*  9%

tax = .09x

The total cost is price of tv before tax plus tax

total cost = x + .09x

total cost = 1.09x

446.90 = 1.09x

Divide each side by 1.09

446.90/1.09 = 1.09x/1.09

410 = x

The price of the tv before tax is 410
