Answer 1

$55.25

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1

Let:

a cup of soup and salad= $ 8.99

a cup of soup and half sandwich =$6.49

sandwich and fruit cup = $7.59

so, the total is

total = (2 times 8.99)+(1 time6.49)+(3* 7.59)+tip

so

`\begin{gathered} \text{ total = (2}\cdot8.99)+(6.49)+(3\cdot7.59)+8 \\ total\text{ = 17.98+6.49+22.77+8} \\ total\text{ =}55.25 \end{gathered}`

therefore, the answer is

$55.25
