Jaime purchased a sewing machine. After 8% sales tax, she paid $139.32. What equation can be used to find the pre-tax price of the sewing machine? p+ 0.08p= 139.32, where p is the pre-tax price of the machine. p - 0.08p = 139.32, where p is the pre-tax price of the machine. p – 0.08 = 139.32, where p is the pre-tax price of the machine. p+ 0.08 = 139.32, where p is the pre-tax price of the machine.
