=24+8

=$32

Answer 2

2 × 12 + 2 × 2 × 4 - 2

Explanation:

Given,

The number of stickers bought = 12,

The price of each sticker = $ 2,

So, the cost of all stickers = 2 × 12

Also, the number sticker album = 4,

According to the question,

The cost of each album = 2 × cost of each sticker = 2 × 2

So, the total cost of all album = 2 × 2 × 4

Thus, the total cost of stickers and album = 2 × 12 + 2 × 2 × 4

After getting $ 2 off,

Hence,

The final spending = 2 × 12 + 2 × 2 × 4 - 2
