Your family got a coupon for 35% off at Red Robin. Your bill comes to $45.00 before you use the coupon. Sales tax on the discounted meal is calculated at 8%. You then leave a 15% tip based on the original cost of the meal. How much will dinner and tip cost?

$38.34

Step-by-step explanation:

Original bill total: $45

35% discount: $15.75

subtotal: $29.25

sales tax: 8% of $29.25: $2.34

bill for meal: $29.25 + $2.34 = $31.59

Tip: 15% of original cost of meal: 15% of $45: $6.75

TOTAL COST: $31.59 + $6.75 = $38.34

$25

step-by-step explanation:

25 - 4.50 = 20.5

20.5 / 2 = 10.25

10.25 + 10 = 20.25

20.25 - 12.50 = 7.75

therefore the answer is $25 as shown as the first number.
