Gracie will spend $15.30 on her meal in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to start by adding the cost of the chicken tenders and the soft drink together. Once this is done, you get the total cost of the meal without tax which is $12.75.

To find the tax, multiply $12.75 by 0.2, which gets you the price of the tax, $2.55.

You then add the cost of the meal without tax and the tax together, which would look something like this: $12.75+$2.55

Adding these two together would get you the total price of the meal with tax, which is $15.30

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\textsf{ The net amount to be paid is \textbf{ \$ 15.30 }}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Graice went out to eat and she ordered chicken tenders for $ 11.50 and a soft drink for $ 1.25 . She also wants to leave a tip of 20% of the total amount . So ,

=> Total amount that should be paid = Amount of chicken tenders + Amount of soft drink.

= $( 11.50 + 1.25 )

= $ 12.75

Now on this amount she wants to give a tip of 20 % . So the net amount wil be ,

[tex]\sf\implies Net_{(Amount)}= Total \ cost + 20\% \ of \ Total \ cost \\\\\sf\implies Net_{(Amount)}= \$ 12.75 + 20\% of \$ 12.75 \\\\\sf\implies Net_{(Amount)}= \$ (12.75 + 2.55 )\\\\\sf\implies \boxed{\pink{\sf Net_{(Amount)}= \$ 15.30 }}[/tex]

★ Hence the net amount to be paid is $ 15.30 .
