Answer 1

yes, it will cost him $94.77

Answer 2

Yes, Nathan can use the coupon. $94.77 is the purchase cost after using coupon.

Explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Cost of 1 pairs of board short = $25.99

Cost of 3 pairs of board short =

`25.99* 3 = \$77.97`

Cost of 1 towel = $5.65

Cost of 2 towel =

`5.65* 2 = \$11.3`

Cost of 1 pair of sunglasses = $15.50

Total Cost =

Cost of 3 pairs of board short + Cost of 2 towel + Cost of 1 pair of sunglasses

`= 77.97 + 11.30 +15.50 = \$104.77`

Since, the total cost is greater than $100, Nathan can use the coupon.

Purchase cost after applying coupon =

`104.77 - 10= \$94.77`

$94.77 is the purchase cost after using coupon.
