For lunch, you head to the local fast food restaurant. you order a hamburger for $5.95, an order of fries for $1.50 and a drink for $2.40. sales tax in your state is 6.5%. what will the final price of your lunch be, including tax? round your answer to the nearest cent.

Hamburger = $5.95, fries = $1.50, drink = $2.40; add all of these values up to calculate the total price of your lunch, excluding tax.

5.95 + 1.50 + 2.40 = 9.85

The total price of your lunch (w/o tax) is $9.85. Now let's find the price with the tax of 6.5%.

Multiply $9.85 by 6.5%, or 0.065 to find the tax.

9.85 * 0.065 = 0.64025

Add the tax price onto the total price.

9.85 + 0.64025 = 10.49025

The answer wants the final price rounded to the nearest cent, which is the hundredths place, so the final answer is 10.49.

Your lunch cost $10.49 in total (w/ tax).
