The sales tax on an item varies directly as the cost of the item. The sales tax in your area is 7%. The sales tax on
your item was $10.50. What was the cost of the item before the sales tax was applied?

The cost of the item was $9.76 before the sales tax was applied.

$9.76

i got a hair cut today from my mom not to flex just to flex kim jon un is one rad fellow i'd say you'd need to take the hairline in kinda like a box shape like someone rammed a lego brick into your head. from there you really need to take the top up keeping with that boxy aesthetic, finally coat the whole thing with gel if your country economics are failing or whatever you can just coat it with the starving children's food rations. about 5 orphans per strand is a good ratio. good luck with the fresh cut my dude
