To calculate how much Bailey will spend altogether on her lunch, we need to add up the cost of the meal, the delivery fee, and the tip for the driver. However, the total cost of the meal is not provided in your question.

Assuming the total cost of the meal is \( x \), the total amount spent would be calculated as:

\[ \text{Total Amount} = x + \text{Delivery Fee} + \text{Tip} \]

Substituting the known values:

\[ \text{Total Amount} = x + 3.50 + 4.00 \]

\[ \text{Total Amount} = x + 7.50 \]

With the information provided, I cannot determine the total amount Bailey will spend because the cost of her meal ( \( x \) ) is not given. Please provide the cost of the meal to calculate the total amount correctly.

Since the cost of the meal isn't provided, I can't calculate the total. However, if I had to make a selection from the given options without the meal cost, I would note that none of the options can be definitively chosen without more context.

However, if we're looking at the total, one option that appears to be plausible, and if we guess a meal cost around $24.24, which makes a combined total of:

\[ 24.24 + 7.50 = 31.74 \]

Since 31.74 is close to the $31.18 option, you could consider choosing $31.18 as the best guess given the options. Please note that this is purely speculative.
