Answer:

Total: $25.5

Explanation:

The total amount is

Total = discounted price + tip

Now the discounted price after 15% coupon is 100% - 15 % = 85% of the original price; therefore,


(85)/(100)*25=\$21.25

Hence, the discounted price is found to be $21.25.

Now we find the tip amount.

The tip amount is 20% of the discounted price; therefore,


(20)/(100)*21.25=\$4.25

Thus we find that the tip amount is $4.25.

Therefore, the total is

Total = $21.25 + $ 4.25 = $ 25. 5

Whichi s our answer!
