The meal cost spent by Jack at the restaurant if he spent $15 including tip and bill is $11.79.

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

Let x represent the meal cost, hence:

Total cost = x + 0.2x + 0.0725x

15 = 1.2725x

x = 11.79
