Answer:

$24000

Explanation:

We are given that

Sales tax=8%

Sales tax amount=$1920

We have to find the cost of the Buick before the tax.

Let x be the cost of Buick before the tax.

According to question

8% of x=1920

[tex]\frac{8}{100}\times x=1920[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{1920}\times \frac{100}{8}[/tex]

[tex]x=24000[/tex]

Hence, the cost of the Buick before the tax=$24000
