country c imposes a two - tiered tax on imported cars : the first tier imposes a tax of 12 % of the car ' s price up to a certain price level . if the car ' s price is higher than the first tier ' s level , the tax on the portion of the price that exceeds this value is 9 % . if ron imported a $ 18000 imported car and ended up paying $ 1950 in taxes , what is the first tier ' s price level ?
n0 = 12.0
n1 = 9.0
n2 = 18000.0
n3 = 1950.0
t0 = n1 / 100.0
t1 = n0 / 100.0
t2 = 2.0 * 3.0
t3 = t2 * 3.0
t4 = t1 - t0
t5 = t3 * 1000.0
t6 = t0 * t5
t7 = n3 - t6
answer = t7 / t4
