5% = sales tax rate

Step-by-step explanation:

tax = original price * sales tax rate

We know the tax and the original price

1.29 = 25.79 * sales tax rate

Divide each side by 25.79

1.29/25.79 = 25.79/25.79 * sales tax rate

.0500 = sales tax rate

Change this to percent form by multiplying by 100

5% = sales tax rate

step-by-step explanation:

we are given that,

we get that, the water can be measured by 'millimeters per hour'.

hence, the appropriate rate for describing the amount of water is 'millimeters per hour'.

you already gave the answer
