Paying for the sex? If she isn't an escort or if money wasn't discussed at all, she's not getting paid jack.
Paying for the taxi ride home is another story and is probably not gonna break the bank.
I'm genuinely curious, and I'm not trying to start an argument, but why do you think that OP should pay for the cab ride home? I'm going to assume the woman was not an escort, that she went to OP's place of her own accord, and was a willing participant. So my questions is why is it seen as the "right thing to do" to give her money to get home?
I ask this as a woman, who would never assume that I didn't need to figure my own shit out, after a night of partying, because it's my responsibility. I get it is probably the nice thing to do, maybe, but even then, she theoretically had fun too.

As a dude I would offer to pay for their cab home, but someone asking for that is a yellow flag.
Asking for me to pay for a bunch of stuff, including the cab, would be a red flag. Unless I've travelled back in time to the 70's or I'm living in Saudi Arabia, paying for my date should be a nice thing to do, not an expectation.
