Answer 1

5[($89 - $5) + ($35 + $4)]

Explanation:

We are told the hotel costs $89 per night. And that she will receive $5 discount per night if she pays in advance.

Thus, total per night = $89 - $5

Now, we are told that the rental car costs $35 per day plus taxes that total $4 per day.

Thus, for a day it's; $35 + $4

Now,for 5 days, cost of hotel is = 5($89 - $5)

For 5 days, rental car will cost; 5($35 + $4)

Thus,total for Sally to pay for both hotel and rental car for 5 days is;

5($89 - $5) + 5($35 + $4)

Simplifying further we have;

5[($89 - $5) + ($35 + $4)]
