You order an appetizer for $12.99, 2 entrees for $12.99 each, and a dessert for $4.29. 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:

$52.73


Step-by-step explanation:

Total Cost is sum of the individual costs

  • Appetizer = $12.99
  • 2 entrees for $12.99 each = [tex]2*12.99=25.98[/tex]
  • Dessert = $4.29

Total cost of food is [tex]12.99+25.98+4.29=43.26[/tex]


Now, adding 6% sales tax on top of that is:

[tex]43.26*(1.06)=45.8556[/tex]

Then, 15% tip on top of that:

[tex]45.8556*1.15=52.73[/tex]


Hence total cost of restaurant outing is $52.73
