Allam just finished a great meal at a restaurant in wisconsin. the sales tax in wisconsin is 5 percent, and it is costumary to leave a of 15 percent for the server. the tip amount is calculated on the price of the meal before the tax is applied. if allam ordered a $15 meal, how much money will he have to pay on tax and tip

Tax = $0.75

Tip = $2.25

Total (meal + tax + tip)= $18.00

Step-by-step explanation:

When solving for percentages of a number, such as sale tax and tip, multiplying the decimal equivalent of each percentage to the amount will give you the individual costs.  For example, in this case the sales tax is 5%, the decimal equivalent of 5% = 5 ÷ 100 = 0.05.  To find the amount of tax on Allam's meal, multiply the rate by the amount:

0.05 x $15 = $0.75

Since he plans to leave a 15% tip, we can also multiply the amount of the meal by the planned tip amount:

15 ÷ 100 = 0.15

0.15 x $15 = $2.25

Total amount paid, including tax and tip:

$15 + $0.75 + $2.25 = $18.00

x hot dogs for 2$, y drinks for 3$. 29 items and total 70

2x+3y=70

x+y=29

if x=17and y=12

2(17)+3(12)=70

34+36=70
