To find out how much change Layla will get back, we first need to calculate the total cost of her purchases.
1. Cost of 2 cupcakes: $5.70
2. Cost of 1 juice: $1.50
3. Cost of 1 ice cream cup: $3.50
Now, let's add these amounts together:
\[
\text{Total cost} = 5.70 + 1.50 + 3.50
\]
Calculating the total:
\[
5.70 + 1.50 = 7.20
\]
\[
7.20 + 3.50 = 10.70
\]
So, the total cost of her purchases is $10.70.
Now, we will subtract this amount from the amount Layla had:
\[
\text{Change} = 15.00 - 10.70 = 4.30
\]
Therefore, the change Layla will receive is $4.30.

1. Cost of 2 cupcakes: $5.70
2. Cost of 1 juice: $1.50
3. Cost of 1 ice cream cup: $3.50
Now, let's add these amounts together:
\[
\text{Total cost} = 5.70 + 1.50 + 3.50
\]
Calculating the total:
\[
5.70 + 1.50 = 7.20
\]
\[
7.20 + 3.50 = 10.70
\]
So, the total cost of her purchases is $10.70.
Now, we will subtract this amount from the amount Layla had:
\[
\text{Change} = 15.00 - 10.70 = 4.30
\]
Therefore, the change Layla will receive is $4.30.
