can you help me with algebra 1Lindy works at a pizza restaurant and gets a 10% employee discount. She knows that if she orders d drinks and a medium pizza with t toppings, her total cost can be found using this expression:0.90(2.25d + 1.40t + 6).What is the total cost for Lindy and her friends to order 4 drinks and a medium pizza with 3 toppings?

Answer:

17.28

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the total cost is given by


0.90(2.25d+1.40t+6)

If Lindy orders 4 drinks and a medium pizza with 3 toppings. then d = 4 and t = 3. Putting these values into the expression gives


0.90(2.25*4+1.40*3+6)

which we evaluate to get


0.90(2.25*4+1.40*3+6)=\boxed{17.28.}

Hence, the total cost of 4 drinks and a medium pizza with 3 toppings is $17.28.
