Answer: Amount he paid included tax would be $11.718.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Cost of Italian salad = $3.99
Cost of fettuccine Alfredo = $7.17
Total cost would be
[tex]\$3.99+\$7.17\\\\=\$11.16[/tex]
Rate of sales tax = 5%
So, Amount of sales tax would be
[tex]\dfrac{5}{100}\times 11.16\\\\=0.05\times 11.16\\\\=\$0.558[/tex]
So, the amount after tax becomes
[tex]\$11.16+0.558\\\\=\$11.718[/tex]
Hence, Amount he paid included tax would be $11.718.
