I NEED HELP ASAP PLEASE HURRY

Marc wants to buy a bestselling book and a DVD of the movie based on the book. He has $30 to spend. Find the estimated total cost of the two items by rounding their prices to the nearest dollar. Will Marc be able to purchase both items with the money he has?

Prices, including taxes: Book: $10.58 and DVD: $19.50

The estimated total to the nearest dollar is $29, so he can afford both items.
The estimated total to the nearest dollar is $31, so he can afford both items.
The estimated total to the nearest dollar is $29, so he cannot afford both items.

Answer:

Answer:

I think it would be last one. Based on the idea that 10.58 would round up to 11.00, and the DVD would add up to 20.oo

that would equal 31.00, and he only has 30.00 to spend.

So I would say D.
