Answer:
The difference is $5.62
Step-by-step explanation:
The total cost Marcus will pay is
35.99 + 5.5% of 35.99
= 35.99 + 0.055(35.99) = 35.99 + 1.97945 = 37.96945
The total cost Tai will pay is;
39.99 + 9% of 39.99
= 39.99 + 0.09(39.99) = 43.5891
The difference between the total costs will be;
43.5891 - 37.96945 = 5.61965
To the nearest cent, this is 5.62
