Answer 2

Answer is $50.02.

Explanation:

Dinners of Bob and Marie are = $14 + $16 = $30

Beverage costs = 1.25 × 2 = $2.50

Dessert costs = 4.25 × 2 = $8.50

Total = 30 + 2.50 + 8.50 = $41.00 (without tax)

Now we calculate 7% tax and 15% tip

Tax = 41 × 0.07 = $2.87

Tip = 41 × 0.15 = $6.15

Now add tax and tip in total amount

= 41 + 2.87 + 6.15 = 50.02

Dinner will cost $50.02.
