The price of a watermelon basket is $9 before tax, with a tax rate of 9%.

The tax amount for the watermelon basket is calculated as follows:

\frac{9\%}{100\%} \times\$9=0.09\times\$9 \\ \\ =\$0.81

Therefore, the total that Tiffany pays for the basket comes to $9 + $0.81 = $9.81

Let x represent the full price of the watermelon basket, including tax.

Tiffany has purchased a basket of watermelons priced at $9, and the sales tax rate is 9%. The overall cost will be $9 plus 9% of the basket's price ($9).

x=9+ (9 \times \frac{9}{100})    

x=9+ (9 \times 0.09)                  

x=9+ (0.81)

x=9+0.81=9.81

Hence, Tiffany's total bill for the basket of watermelons is $9.81.

Question 1: (2.2, -1.4). Question 2: (1.33, 1). Providing a detailed analysis, the equations for the given lines are specified as (1) passing through points (0, 2.5) and (2.2, 1.4), and (2) through (0, -3) and (2.2, -1.4). We are tasked with locating a common solution or intersection of these equations. This leads to finding x = 2.2, and consequently y = -1.4. Therefore, the solution set is (2.2, -1.4). For question 2, the equations yield a solution of (1.33, 1).
