Dave pays $15 and tax is $1.2 so dave spent a total of $16.20.
Mel pays $20 and tax is $1.6 so Mel spent a total of $21.60.
All you need to do is convert the percent to a decimal, so take 8 and divide by 100 and you get 0.08. then you need to multiply the cost by the tax so 15*0.08=1.2 then you just add tax to original amount 15+1.2=16.2

we are given the recipe of the cake made by Jessica. In this recipe, a cup weighs 128 grams in which the cake needs 96 grams. she uses half a cup which is equal to 64 grams. This means she needs to add 32 grams more which is 1/4 of a cup. In all, she needs 3/4 of a cup
The cost equation has a constant rate of change, so this is a line of the form:
y=mx+b, you are told that there is a flat fee of $5 and an hourly rate of $2 so
y=2x+5
The y-intercept (the value of y when x=0) is 5. The point (0,5) on the line.
<span>Let n be the number of taxis in NY. The average distance travelled is 60,000 miles, therefore the middle 95% will have the same average as the population, the reason being the mileage is symmetrically distributed about the mean Therefore the total number of miles in one year for the middle 95% is 60,000 * 0.95 * n
</span><span>The range of miles driven by the middle 95% can be found from the empirical rule that says:
For a normal distribution, approximately 95% of the data points lie within the range plus and minus 2 standard deviations of the population mean. In this case the range is
(60,000-22,000) to (60,000 + 22,000)</span>
