Answer:

Tax for Italian Salad=$0.20

Tax for Lasagna= $0.43

Tax for Spaghetti =$0.21

Tax for Fettuccini Alfredo =$0.36

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to multiple the price of each item by the tax percentage in decimal form (divided by 100):

Italian Salad =$3.99

  • Tax for Italian Salad= 3.99 x (5/100) = 3.99 x 0.05 =$0.20

Lasagna =$8.50

  • Tax for Lasagna= 8.50 x (5/100) = 8.50 x 0.05 =$0.43

Spaghetti =$4.29

  • Tax for Spaghetti = 4.29x (5/100) = 4.29 x 0.05 =$0.21

Fettuccini Alfredo =$7.17

  • Tax for Fettuccini Alfredo = 7.17 x (5/100) = 7.17 x 0.05 =$0.36

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
