Answer:

[tex]\$60.35[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the total amount of money worked

Multiply 6.5 hours by the rate $11.50 / hour.

[tex]6.5(11.50)=\$74.75[/tex]

step 2

Find the total cost of the dinner

Remember that

[tex]100\%+20\%=120\%=120/100=1.2[/tex]

so

the cost of the dinner plus the tip is equal to

[tex]\$12(1.2)=\$14.4[/tex]

step 3

Find the amount of money left

Subtract the total cost from the total amount of money

so

[tex]\$74.75-\$14.4=\$60.35[/tex]
