Answer:

The price of the camera before tax would be $ 87.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the price of the camera before tax,

Given,

The percentage of tax = 6 %,

So, the amount of tax = 6 % of the price before tax

= 6 % of x

= 0.06x

According to the question,

The amount of tax = $ 5.25

[tex]\implies 0.06x = 5.25[/tex]

[tex]\implies x=\frac{5.25}{0.06}=87.5[/tex]

Hence, the price of the camera before tax is $ 87.5.
