Answer 1

The total price of the meal after tax and tip is $31.62.

Explanation:

Given:

Their bill is = $25.40.

Sales tax = 5.5%.

Tip to waitress = 18%.

Now, to find the total price of the meal after tax and tip.

So, to get the price of the meal after sales tax :

$25.40 + 5.5% of $25.40.

`=25.40+(5.5)/(100) * 25.40.`

`=25.40+(139.7)/(100)`

`=25.40+1.397`

`=\$26.797`

Now, to get the total price after tax and tip:

$26.797 + 18% of $26.797.

`=26.797+(18)/(100) * 26.797`

`=26.797+0.18* 26.797`

`=26.797+4.823`

`=\$31.62.`

Therefore, the total price of the meal after tax and tip is $31.62.
