  16. There are situations when the percent of change is going to be anincrease. Examples are: • Tips • Sales Tax • Increase in Population

  17. Tip: An amount added to a bill for services provided. Customers traditionally tip 18 - 20% for good service in restaurants and salons. Example: If the restaurant bill is $45 and you want to leave a 20% tip, how much money should you leave? 45 + .20(45) = 54  or  45(1.20) = 54 The customer will leave $54 on the table. The waitress will receive a $9 tip and the restaurant will receive $45. To calculate the amount of the tip only: .20(45) = 9

  18. Sales tax: An amount of money that is calculated by applying a percentage rate to the taxable price of a sale. Sales taxes are collected by the buyer from the seller, who turns it over to the government. In NJ the sales tax rate is 7%. To calculate Sales Tax alone find the percent (tax) of the price. That is the amount that you owe in addition to the cost of the item. To find the total cost of an item, you must add the sales tax to the cost. There are 2 ways to do this: Find the percent of the item and add it to the original amount. 2. Find 100% + tax% of the original amount.

  19. A car costs $23,500. How much sales tax will the customer pay? 23,500(0.07) = $1645 What will the customer pay altogether for the car? 23,500 + 1645 = $25,145 The total cost of the car, including tax, can be calculated as follows: 23,500 + .07(23,500) = 25,145 or 23,500(1.20) = 25,145
