Samantha received $4.50 in change.
Samantha’s total before tax was $15.50.
Samantha received $16.74 in change.
Samantha received $3.26 in change.
Samantha’s total with tax was $16.74.
To find the total before tax, we need to add up the prices of the items Samantha ordered: 2 pork tacos ($3 each) + 1 steak taco ($3.50) + churros ($2) + soft drink ($1.50) = $<<2*3+3.50+2+1.50=13>>13.
To find the total with tax, we add the sales tax to the total before tax: $13 + $1.24 = $<<13+1.24=14.24>>14.24.
To find the change Samantha received, we subtract the total with tax from the amount she paid: $20 - $14.24 = $<<20-14.24=5.76>>5.76.
Therefore, the three true statements are:
1. Samantha received $5.76 in change.
2. Samantha's total before tax was $13.
3. Samantha's total with tax was $14.24.
