Answer 1

The answer is b on ed2020

Explanation:

46.32*.075=3.47 tax

46.32*1.20+3.47=$59.05 total

Answer 2

7 1/2% tax??

46.32 x 0.075 = 3.47

46.32 + 3.47 = 49.79

49.79 x 0.20 = 9.96

49.79+9.96 = 59.75

total bill = $59.75

NOTE: The question does not state if the tip is only on the bill or with tax included. Since the tax rate was given, I included the tax. Also, note, where I am from tips are paid based on the total bill including the tax.
