Answer 1

John's statement is false because the meal would cost around $12 (specifically $11.47)

Answer 2

John's statement is not reasonable because the meal costs about 12 dollars.

Explanation:

The cost of a meal at a fast food restaurant :

The cost of a sandwich = $4.89

the cost of a salad = $3.79

cost of a drink = $2.79

Total cost of meal = 4.89 + 3.79 + 2.79

= $11.47 about 12 dollars

John states that the cost of the meal is $6.08.

John's statement is not reasonable because the meal costs about 12 dollars.
