Answer 1

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.

$12.99 + 2 * $12.99 + $4.29 = $43.26

1.06 * $43.26 = $45.86

1.15 * $45.86 = $52.74

Answer 2

The answer is $52.74.

Explanation:

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

Total amount of food items ;

`12.99+(2*12.99)+4.29` = $43.26

The sales tax is 6%. Tax amount =
`0.06*43.26` = $2.60

Amount in bill =
`43.26+2.60` = $45.86

Tip was 15%. Tip amount =
`0.15*45.86` = $6.88

Hence, total cost will be =
`45.86+6.88`

= $52.74
