Question

The table shows prices for a local bowling alley. Valerie rented shoes, bowled 4 games, and bought 2 orders of nachos. She used a coupon for half off the price of food. What was the total cost, before tax, of Valerie's trip to the bowling alley?

Answer 1

$14.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of Shoe Rental = $2.75

`\begin{gathered} \text{Cost of 4 bowling games:}=4*2.50 \\ =\$10 \end{gathered}`

`\begin{gathered} \text{Cost of 2 orders of nachos:}=2*1.75 \\ =3.50 \\ \text{Coupon of half off the price =}(1)/(2)*3.50 \\ =\$1.75 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, Valerie's total cost, before tax will be:

`\begin{gathered} =2.75+10+1.75 \\ =\$14.50 \end{gathered}`
