A restaurant bill is $27.50. If the sales tax is 7.5% and a 20% tip is added, what is the total cost of the meal? (PLEASE ANSWER ASAP)

35.06

Step-by-step explanation:

So you  have to multiply 27.50 by 0.075 to find the sales tax.

2.0625 ≈ 2.06

If the tip is off the original price, you multiply 27.50 by 0.2.

5.5

The whole meal is 27.50 + 5.50 + 2.06 = 35.06

check above link.

graphically?   well, you graph them both, the solutions is where they both intersect each other, since there are two solutions, meaning they will meet twice, or namely the linear will run into the quadratic curve twice, and where they meet, those x,y coordinates are the solutions to the system.
