a. $41.43
b. $37.68
c. $36.35
d. $24.27

B 37.68

Step-by-step explanation:

First we are told that a movie ticket is $13.5 plus tax, which means we have to calculate the tax and add it,

And Zalia pays for her friend too, so she bought two movie tickets

Movie tickets = $12.5 x 2 = $25

Tax = 7.25%

Tax for movie = 7.25/100 x 25 = $1.813

And at the restaurant

She buys:

sandwich = $5.95

Apple = $1.25

Drink = $1.69

Adding this altogether to know amount spent on food will be 5.95+1.25+1.69 = $8.89

Calculating tax for the food also

Tax 7.25/100 x 8.89 = $0.645

Then she tips the waiter 15% of the food bill

Tip = 15/100 x 8.89 = $1.334

So adding everything together

Movie tickets including tax = 25 + 1.813 = $26.813

Food including task = 8.89 + 0.645 = 9.535

Tip = $1.334

Total = 26.813+9.535+1.334 = $37.682

In two decimal places

= $37.68
