Answer:

$15.98

Step-by-step explanation:

Before Tax Price: $15.00

Sale Tax: 6.50% or $0.98

After Tax Price: $15.98

Answer:

$17.80

Step-by-step explanation:

6.5 / 15 = 0.43<--- the tax percent per dollar

6.5 x 0.43 = $2.80<---- how much you need to pay for the taxes

$15.00 + $2.80 = $17.80
