To calculate the total tax using the formula you provided, we first need to compute the expression inside the parentheses:
\( 50 + 40 = 90 \)
Next, we multiply that sum by the tax rate of 0.05:
\[
0.05 \times 90 = 4.5
\]
Therefore, the total tax is **$4.50**.
\( 50 + 40 = 90 \)
Next, we multiply that sum by the tax rate of 0.05:
\[
0.05 \times 90 = 4.5
\]
Therefore, the total tax is **$4.50**.
