Answer 2

Answer:

1).  A) 1.062x+26=754

2).  C) $685.50

Step-by-step explanation:

1)  You have the sofa price as x plus 6.2% of the sofa price.

So you would need to show 106.2% of selling price which would be...

1.062x

add the delivery fee to this...

1.062x+26

and that gives you all costs in one equation so you can calculate the selling price...

1.062x+26=754

2)  simply solve our equation..

1.062x+26=754

1.062x=728

x=685.499

round to nearst cent..

$685.50
