Don and marie like to go to a good restaurant. dinners are $16 to $19 dollars with soup or salad. a beverage is $1.50. dessert is $3.75. if one dinner is $16, the other is $19 and each diner has a beverage and dessert, what will the cost be if a 6% tax is charged and a 15% tip on the pre-tax amount is left?

$55.055

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of one dinner = $16+$1.50+$3.75=21.25

The cost of the other dinner = $19+$1.50+$3.75=24.25

The total cost of both the dinners =

The 15% tax on the cost of dinners =

The 6% tax on the dinners =

The total cost of the dinners =

The cost of dinners if a 6% tax is charged and a 15% tip on the pre-tax amount is left =$55.055
