Question

you are on the 8th-grade dance committee and in charge of purchasing the refreshments. chips cost 79 cents a bag and sodas cost 99 cents a bottle. if you are asked to buy 12 bags of chips and 25 sodas, and you are given 35 dollars calculate whether or not you will be given enough money.

Answer 1

You will have enough money.

Explanation:

The total will be 0.79(12)+0.99(25) = $34.23.

Since this is less than $35, you will have enough money.

Answer 2

`\huge\text{Hey there!}`

`\large\textsf{E}\frak{quation:}`

`\mathsf{12 * \$0.79 + 25*\$0.99 = \frak{total}}`

`\large\textsf{S}impli\rm{fy\ } it:`

`\mathsf{12* \$0.79 + 25*\$0.99 = \frak{total}}`

`\mathsf{\$9.48 + \$24.75 = \frak{total}}`

`\mathsf{\$34.23 = \frak{total}}`

`\huge\text{Therefore, your answer should be:}`

`\huge\boxed{\textsf{YES, you should have enough money}}\huge\checkmark`
