The manager takes 15% of $550, which is 0.15 x $550 = $82.50.
The band is donating 20% of $550, which is 0.20 x $550 = $110.
Subtracting the manager's fee and the charity donation from the total earnings gives:
$550 - $82.50 - $110 = $357.50.
Therefore, the band is left with $357.50 to split among themselves.

The bill for a meal at a restaurant before tax is $84 the sales tax rate is 7% and you want to leave a 20% tip based on the pre-tax amount what is the final amount of money you will spend
To calculate the sales tax, we first need to find 7% of the pre-tax amount.
7% of $84 = 0.07 x $84 = $5.88
So the sales tax is $5.88.
To find the total amount after tax, we add the pre-tax amount and the sales tax:
$84 + $5.88 = $89.88
To leave a 20% tip based on the pre-tax amount, we need to multiply the pre-tax amount by 0.20:
20% of $84 = 0.20 x $84 = $16.80
So the total amount spent, including tax and tip, is:
$89.88 + $16.80 = $106.68
Therefore, the final amount of money you will spend is $106.68.
7% of $84 = 0.07 x $84 = $5.88
So the sales tax is $5.88.
To find the total amount after tax, we add the pre-tax amount and the sales tax:
$84 + $5.88 = $89.88
To leave a 20% tip based on the pre-tax amount, we need to multiply the pre-tax amount by 0.20:
20% of $84 = 0.20 x $84 = $16.80
So the total amount spent, including tax and tip, is:
$89.88 + $16.80 = $106.68
Therefore, the final amount of money you will spend is $106.68.
