You order an appetizer for $9.99, 2 entrées for $7.99 each, and a dessert for $3.49. The sales tax is 6% and you leave a 15% tip based on the bill with sales tax. What is the total cost of your restaurant outing
Answer: $35.65
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The cost of an appetizer= $9.99
The cost of each entrees = $7.99
Then , the cost of 2 entrees = @@MATH_TOKEN_0@@
The cost of a desert =$3.49
Now, the total cost of food you order = \(\$9.99+\$15.98+\$3.49=\$29.46\) (1)
Then, sales tax percent = 6% =0.06
Then, the sales tax amount = \(0.06\times29.46=\$1.7676\) (2)
The percent of tip = 15% = 0.15
Then , the tip amount: \(0.15\times29.46=\$4.419\) (3)
Then , the total cost of your restaurant outing will be (adding (1), (2) and (3)) :-
\(\$29.46+\$4.419+\$1.7676=\$35.6466\approx\$35.65\)
Hence, the total cost of your restaurant outing = $35.65
