Answer: Bill is $12.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: identify the highest priced item, which is a bacon cheeseburger whose cost is $5.95, since coupon of 50% is on it, it means you get to pay half (1/2) of the money. 5.95/2 = $2.975
Next step is to add all the costs together:
Cheeseburger at 50% off = $2.975
A side of fries = $2.99
A side of salad= $1.29
Icecream cone= $1.99
A drink= $2.89
= 2.975 + 2.99 + 1.29 + 1.99 + 2.89
=$12.135
Then, find the sales tax, Sales tax = 5%, means we find find percent of the total cost of items and add to the bill
Sales tax = 5/100 × 12.135 = 0.607
Finally, we add the sales tax to the total cost of items (0.607 + 12.135)
=$12.74.
I hope this helps.
