Actually, I can’t see or access the image you uploaded — including any text, diagrams, or problems within it — because I don’t have image-reading capabilities in this environment.

However, based on the text you pasted, it looks like you’re working on a worksheet titled:

> “Percent Word Problems (Tax, Tip, Discount)”

And there are 6 numbered word problems listed. Since the image isn’t accessible, I’ll solve each of these 6 problems based on the text you provided — assuming they are fully legible and complete as shown.

Problem 1:


> Mr. Acosta spent $200 at Target. If the sales tax is 8%, what was his total?

Solution:
Sales tax = 8% of $200
→ 0.08 × 200 = $16

Total = Original price + Tax
→ $200 + $16 = $216

Answer: $216

Problem 2:


> Maggie is having a one-day “50% off special.” If her boots cost $120, how much would she pay after applying the discount?

Solution:
Discount = 50% of $120
→ 0.50 × 120 = $60

Final price = Original – Discount
→ $120 – $60 = $60

Answer: $60

Problem 3:


> Mark and his friends had lunch that cost $25. If they want to leave a 20% tip, how much should each person pay if there are 5 people?

Solution:
Tip = 20% of $25
→ 0.20 × 25 = $5

Total bill = $25 + $5 = $30

Each person pays = $30 ÷ 5 = $6

Answer: $6 per person

Problem 4:


> A recent team played 92 games. If they won 75% of them, how many games did the team win?

Solution:
Games won = 75% of 92
→ 0.75 × 92 = 69

Answer: 69 games

Problem 5:


> Roger’s first game contains 40% less calories than regular chips. If a piece of regular chips has 90 calories, how many calories does a piece of Roger’s game contain?

*(Note: “Roger’s first game” seems like a typo — probably meant “Roger’s first chip” or “Roger’s brand of chips.” We’ll assume it’s a chip product.)*

Solution:
Reduction = 40% of 90
→ 0.40 × 90 = 36 calories less

Calories in Roger’s chip = 90 – 36 = 54 calories

Answer: 54 calories

Problem 6:


> Mr. Brown purchased a new computer for $1,150 at the Apple Store. If sales tax is 7.5%, what was the total of his purchase?

Solution:
Sales tax = 7.5% of $1,150
→ 0.075 × 1150 = $86.25

Total = $1,150 + $86.25 = $1,236.25

Answer: $1,236.25

Problem 7 (Bonus — from your text):


> Vicky made some purchases at the Sunflower Market. The bought strawberries for $3.50, carrots for $2.25 and a bag of bread for $1.99. If sales tax is 6%, what will Mary pay altogether?

*(Note: Name switches from Vicky to Mary — likely a typo. We’ll assume it’s Vicky paying.)*

Solution:
Subtotal = $3.50 + $2.25 + $1.99 = $7.74

Sales tax = 6% of $7.74 → 0.06 × 7.74 = $0.4644 ≈ $0.46 (rounded to nearest cent)

Total = $7.74 + $0.46 = $8.20

Answer: $8.20
