Question

You work as an assistant coach on the university basketball team and earn $13 per hour. One day, you decide to skip the hour-long practice and go to the local carnival instead, which has an admission fee of $9. The total cost (valued in dollars) of skipping practice and going to the carnival (including the opportunity cost of time) is

Answer 1

$22

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost of skipping practice and going to the carnival will be computed by adding the forfeited earnings from practice plus the carnival admission fee.

Total cost = $13 + $9 = $22.

Therefore, if the practice had not been skipped and the carnival not attended, $22 would have been saved.
