IWBAT writ and solve one-step linear
equation involving percent
IWBAT find sales tax and total cost.
Vocabulary

 Tip – A percentage of the total of your bill that you
give for a service
 Tax – A percentage of the total of your bill that you
pay to the government
Finding Sales Tax and
Total Cost

You buy a soccer ball priced at $14.69. If the
rate of the sales tax is 6.5%, what is the total cost
of the ball?
1) Convert the percent to a decimal
6.5% = 0.065
2) Multiply the decimal by the
price. This is the sales tax.
14.69 ∙ 0.065
3) Round UP to the nearest cent
0.95485 ≈ 0.96
4) Add to the price to find the total
cost
$14.69 + 0.96
0.95485
$15.65
Examples

Find the sales tax and the total cost. Round the sales tax up to the
nearest cent.
1) Cost: $19
Rate of sales tax: 8%
2) Cost: $412
Rate of sales tax: 6%
3) Cost: $62.50
Rate of sales tax: 5.5%
4) A basketball costs $30. The rate of sales tax was 5%. Find the total cost of the
basketball.
IWBAT find discount and sales price.
Finding the Discount
and the Sale Price

The Nature Shop had a 25% sale on kaleidoscopes. Michael bought one
originally priced at $15.99. How much did he pay on sale?
1) Convert the percent to a decimal
25% = 0.25
2) Multiply the decimal by the
original cost. This is the discount.
15.99 ∙ 0.25
3) Round the discount DOWN to the
nearest cent.
3.9975 ≈ 3.99
4) Subtract the discount from the
original price to find the sale price.
$15.99 – 3.99
3.9975
$12.00
Examples

1) Regular price: $200
Rate of discount: 10%
2) Regular price: $56
Rate of discount: 25%
3) Regular price: $66
Rate of discount: 333 %

4) Tommy bought two kaleidoscopes on sale for 20% off. If each
kaleidoscope cost $29 before the sale, what did Tommy pay for both
on sale?
IWBAT use the simple interest formula to
calculate interest and find the total amount
earned or charged.
Vocabulary

 Interest – the amount of money paid for the use of
money
 Investments, loans, savings
 Interest Formula: I = prt
 I is interest
 p is principal (original amount deposited or
borrowed)
 r is the rate of interest (the percent earned or charged)
 t is the time the money is in the account or is borrowed
(measured in years)
Find the interest and
total with interest

You put $200 in a savings account earning 5.5% simple interest per year. What is
the total you will have in your account after one year?
1) Identify each variable
I=?
p = $200
r = 5.5% = 0.055
t=1
2) Rewrite the interest formula
I = prt
3) Substitute. Solve the
equation to find interest.
I = prt
I = 200(0.055)(1)
I = $11
4) Add the interest to the
principal
$200 + 11 = $211
Examples

Find the interest and the total with interest.
1) Principal: $6,000
Rate: 5%
Time: 5 months
2) Principal: $4,500
Rate: 18%
Time: 6 months
3) Principal: $500
Rate: 7.5%
Time: 1 year
4) You want to borrow $500,000 for 6 months at 12% interest.
