Please help omg !!!

Answer 1

She will spend $8.20

Explanation:

Hi! First, we will put some of this into an equation. Let's use g for guppies and s for sword tails.

Our equation will be .7g + 1.8s = ?

We know that she buys 4 guppies and 3 sword tails

(.7 x 4) + (1.8 x 3) = ?

We solve parenthesis.

2.8 + 5.4 = ?

Solve.

2.8 + 5.4 = 8.2

She will spend $8.20

Hope this helps!

Explanation:

0.70*4=2.80
