4) How much will the total bill be, including the tax and tip?

Answer 1

Tax is C 4.12

Tip is E 15.00

total =94.10

Explanation:

Tax = bill * tax rate

= 74.98 * 5.5%

= 74.98 * .055

= 4.1239

To the nearest cent = 4.12

Tip = bill * tip rate

= 74.98 * 20%

= 74.98 *.2

= 14.996

To the nearest cent = 15.00

The total bill is

Final = bill + tax+ tip

= 74.98 + 4.12+15

= 94.10
