Don and Marie like to go to a good restaurant. Dinners are $16 to $19 dollars with soup or salad. A beverage is $1.50. Dessert is $3.75. If one dinner is $16, the other is $19 and each diner has a beverage and dessert, what will the cost be if a 6% tax is charged and a 15% tip on the pre-tax amount is left?

Hi there!

The correct answer is calculated like so:

16 + 19 + 3 + 3.75 + 3.75 = 45.5

45.5 * 0.06 = 2.73

45.5 * 0.15 = 6.83

45.5 + 2.73 + 6.83 = $55.06

Answer: $55.055

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of one dinner = $16+$1.50+$3.75=21.25

The cost of the other dinner = $19+$1.50+$3.75=24.25

The total cost of both the dinners = [tex]21.25+24.25=\$\ 45.5[/tex]

The 15% tax on the cost of dinners = [tex]0.15\times45.5=\$\ 6.825[/tex]

The 6% tax on the dinners =[tex]0.06\times45.5=\$2.73[/tex]

The total cost of the dinners =[tex]\$\ 45.5+\$\ 6.825+\$\ 2.73=\$55.055[/tex]

The cost of dinners if a 6% tax is charged and a 15% tip on the pre-tax amount is left =$55.055
