Answer:
The total cost of the meal is $24.24
Explanation:
Step 1: Combine the two meal costs.
10.20 + 9.50 = 19.70
Sales tax is 7%, so multiply 19.70 by 0.07 then add the sum to 19.70
19.70 * 0.07 = 1.379
19.70 + 1.379 = 21.079
They leave a 15% tip on the meal, including tax, so take 15% of 21.079 or 21.079 * 0.15, which equals 3.16185
Add 3.16185 to 21.079
This equals 24.24085
Round down to $24.24
