Answer:

1.132d

Explanation:

Cost of the dinner=$d

Coupon=10% after

Tax=8%

Tax=0.08d

Tax + cost of dinner= d + 0.08d

Coupon for 10% discount after tax

10% coupon discount means she will pay 100% - 10%( coupon)

=90%

Price=90%(d + 0.08d)

=0.9(1.08d)

She added 16% tip to the total cost before any price or discount was applied

16% of d

=0.16*d

=0.16d

New price= 0.09(1.08d) + 0.16d

=0.972d + 0.16d

=1.132d
