Answer:

sales tax = $3.20

total cost = $43.20

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will find the sales tax

Sales tax = cost * tax rate

              = 40 * .08

             = 3.2

To find the total cost, we add the sales tax to the cost

total cost = cost + sales tax

              = 40 + 3.2

               43.20
