Answer: The total bill of the lunch = $8.55


Explanation:

Cost of lunch= $7.99

Tax rate =7%

Tax amount on lunch = 7% of (cost of lunch)


=(7)/(100)*7.99\\=0.5593\approx0.56

Therefore, Tax amount on lunch=$0.56

The total bill of the lunch= Cost of lunch+Tax amount on lunch

⇒The total bill of the lunch=$7.99+$0.56

∴The total bill of the lunch= $8.55
