Dave buys a baseball for $15 plus an 8% tax. Mel buys a football for $20 plus an 8% tax. What is the difference in the amount Dave and Mel paid, including tax? Round your answer to the nearest cent.

 $5.40

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will find the tax amount for Dave by multiplying 8% by 15.

8% * 15 =  1.2  

Now add it to the original price of the baseball which is 15.

15 + 1.2= 16.20  This means Dave paid $16.20 in total.

Now find the tax amount for Mel.

20 * 8% = 1.6  

Add 1.6 to the original price which is $20.

1.6 + 20 = 21.60    

Mel also paid $21.60 in total.

To find the difference  we need to subtract the lowest amount from the highest amount.

21.60 - 16.20 = 5.40

the solution is h=10 because you add 9 to each side of the equation.

area = length x width

length = 2 x width

32 = 2 x width x width

32 = 2 x width^2

36 = width ^2  

width = 6

length = 12

area is 32

perimeter = 2 x 12 + 2 x 6 = 24 + 12 = 36
