Step-by-step explanation

We are given the following information:

• Nora has a coupon for $3.

,

• Nora orders a beef and olive calzone.

,

• Her bill after the discount is $9.49

We are required to determine the regular price of the calzone.

If we aren’t including tax and we assume that both beef and calzone are the same price then:


\begin{gathered} Calzone\text{ }price=(9.49+3)/(2)=6.245 \\ Calzone\text{ }price\approx6.25 \end{gathered}

Hence, the price of the calzone is approximately 6.25
