### Menu Selections:
- Appetizer: Price = \($6.50 - Entrée 1 (you): Price = $\)12.75
- Entrée 2 (your friend): Price = \($11.50 - Drink 1 (you): Price = $\)2.75
- Drink 2 (your friend): Price = \($3.00 - Dessert: Price = $\)5.25

### 1. Total Cost of the Bill
To find the total cost of the bill for the selections you made, add together the prices of the appetizer, the two entrees, the two drinks, and the dessert:

\(\[ \text{Total Cost} = \text{Appetizer Price} + \text{Entrée 1 Price} + \text{Entrée 2 Price} + \text{Drink 1 Price} + \text{Drink 2 Price} + \text{Dessert Price} \]\)

Plugging in the given values:

\(\[ \text{Total Cost} = 6.50 + 12.75 + 11.50 + 2.75 + 3.00 + 5.25 \]\)

So, the total cost of the bill is:

\(\[ \$41.75 \]\)

### 2. Final Bill Including the Tip
The recommended tip for this meal is \($6.72. To calculate the final bill including the tip, add the tip to the total cost of the bill: \[ \text{Final Bill with Tip} = \text{Total Cost} + \text{Tip} \] Using the total cost calculated earlier: \[ \text{Final Bill with Tip} = 41.75 + 6.72 \] So, the final bill with the tip included is: \[ \$\)48.47 \]

### 3. Cost without Dessert
If you and your friend decide to skip dessert, subtract the price of the dessert from the total cost:

\(\[ \text{Cost without Dessert} = \text{Total Cost} - \text{Dessert Price} \]\)

Using the total cost calculated earlier:

\(\[ \text{Cost without Dessert} = 41.75 - 5.25 \]\)

So, the cost if you skip dessert is:

\(\[ \$36.50 \]\)

### Summary
1. Total cost of the bill: \($41.75 2. Final bill including the tip: $\)48.47
3. Cost if skipping dessert: $36.50
