At lunch, Noah buys two tacos for $2.35 each, chips and salsa for $1.85, and lemonade for $1.60. To pay for his meal, he uses $5.00 from a gift card he has, and then he pays for the rest with a $20.00 bill. Which equations show how much change Noah receives?

$2.35+$1.85+$1.60=$5.80

$5.80−$5.00=$0.80 

$20.00−$0.80=$19.20
$ 2 . 35 + $ 1 . 85 + $ 1 . 60 = $ 5 . 80 $ 5 . 80 - $ 5 . 00 = $ 0 . 80   $ 20 . 00 - $ 0 . 80 = $ 19 . 20

$2.35+$1.85+$1.60+$5.00=$10.80

$20.00−$10.80=$9.20
$ 2 . 35 + $ 1 . 85 + $ 1 . 60 + $ 5 . 00 = $ 10 . 80 $ 20 . 00 - $ 10 . 80 = $ 9 . 20

$2.35+$2.35+$1.85+$1.60=$8.15

$8.15−$5.00=$3.15

$20.00−$3.15=$16.85
$ 2 . 35 + $ 2 . 35 + $ 1 . 85 + $ 1 . 60 = $ 8 . 15 $ 8 . 15 - $ 5 . 00 = $ 3 . 15 $ 20 . 00 - $ 3 . 15 = $ 16 . 85

$2.35+$2.35+$1.85+$1.60+$5.00=$13.15

$20.00−$13.15=$6.85

Answer 1

To determine how much change Noah receives, we need to first calculate the total cost of his meal and then see how much he pays in total.

1. Calculate the total cost of the tacos, chips and salsa, and lemonade:

• Tacos: 2 tacos at $2.35 each → \(2 \times 2.35 = 4.70\)
• Chips and salsa: $1.85
• Lemonade: $1.60

Total cost = \(4.70 + 1.85 + 1.60 = 8.15\)

2. Noah pays $5.00 using his gift card and then pays the remaining amount with cash.

To find out how much he pays with cash:

• Remaining amount after using the gift card: \(8.15 - 5.00 = 3.15\)

3. Finally, we can calculate how much change Noah receives from his $20.00 bill after paying the remaining amount:

Change received = \(20.00 - 3.15 = 16.85\)

The equations that show how much change Noah receives are:

\[ 2.35 + 2.35 + 1.85 + 1.60 = 8.15 \] \[ 8.15 - 5.00 = 3.15 \] \[ 20.00 - 3.15 = 16.85 \]

Therefore, the correct response is: \[ $2.35 + $2.35 + $1.85 + $1.60 = $8.15 \ $8.15 - $5.00 = $3.15 \ $20.00 - $3.15 = $16.85 \]
