Question

HELP ME PLEASSEE!!! ASAP!!!!!!!

Answer 1

Yes the Sales Tax should be added onto the total cost considering you always pay tax with whatever you buy! If the pizza is 12$ the sales tax would be 0.60$ which makes the total for a pizza 12.60$.
Now if the 15% commission was it, it would be 2.25$, leaving 12.75$ after.

So it wasn’t multiple choice, but if mindy gets a pizza, that’d be losing 0.15$ each time instead of paying commission

I suck at math tho

Answer 2

OK so basically, she’s at the pizza shop selling paintings, since she’s selling it at their venue, the owners may demand a small commission of a price. In this case that is 15% of $15. 15% of 15 is 2.25, meaning she only gets $12.75. Mindy would like to buy a pizza for $12, she has 12, but does she have enough to make the sales tax. 12×.05 is $0.6 dollars which means she has enough money to buy it.
