Explanation
Step 1
remember
[tex]8.5\text{ \%}\Rightarrow\frac{8.5}{100}=0.085[/tex]then, to find the value of the tax, multiply 4.95 0 0.085
[tex]\text{tax}=4.95\cdot0.085=0.42075\text{ per smoothie}[/tex]so, the total cost is
total =2 smoothies +(taxes for 2 smoothies)
total=(2*4.95)+(2*0.42075)
total=9.9+0.8415
total=10.7415
so, Nayebi paid $10.7415
