Answer:
8% is the sales tax rate
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm not the best with math but the way I found the answer was by first using my local sales tax rate and determining how much the tax would be.
490 * 8.75% = 42.875
Knowing that this amount was higher than in the equation, I lowered the sales tax to 8% (0.08)
490 * 8% = 39.2
Hope this was somewhat helpful
