Final answer:

The total amount that the client needs to pay for the wedding photography is $632, which includes a down payment of $500, $112 for 112 smaller photos, and $20 for 8 larger photos.

Step-by-step explanation:

The photography business requires calculating the total cost for the client, which comprises a down payment and the cost of individual photos. First, the down payment is a fixed amount of $500. Next, we add the cost of the smaller photos, which is 112 photos at $1.00 each for a total of $112. Then, we add the cost of the larger photos, which is 8 photos at $2.50 each for a total of $20. To find the total cost, we add all these amounts together:

  • Down payment: $500
  • Cost of 112 small photos (5in x 7in): $112
  • Cost of 8 large photos (9in x 11in): $20

The total amount the client needs to pay is calculated as follows:

Total cost = Down payment + Cost of small photos + Cost of large photos
Total cost = $500 + $112 + $20
Total cost = $632
