Let's break down the amounts Noah spends step by step and identify the correct equations for calculating change received.
-
Cost of Tacos: Noah buys 2 tacos at $2.35 each. So: \[ 2 \times 2.35 = 4.70 \]
-
Cost of Chips and Salsa: This is $1.85.
-
Cost of Lemonade: This is $1.60.
-
Total Cost: Adding them together: \[ 4.70 + 1.85 + 1.60 = 8.15 \]
Now, Noah pays $5.00 with the gift card: \[ 8.15 - 5.00 = 3.15 \]
Then, he pays the remaining balance with a $20 bill: \[ 20.00 - 3.15 = 16.85 \]
Thus, the equations that show how much change Noah receives are:
- \( 2.35 + 2.35 + 1.85 + 1.60 = 8.15 \)
- \( 8.15 - 5.00 = 3.15 \)
- \( 20.00 - 3.15 = 16.85 \)
From the options provided, the correct one is: \[ 2.35 + 2.35 + 1.85 + 1.60 = 8.15 \quad \text{and} \quad 8.15 - 5.00 = 3.15 \quad \text{and} \quad 20.00 - 3.15 = 16.85 \]
So the correct response is: $2.35 + 2.35 + 1.85 + 1.60 = 8.15$ $8.15 - 5.00 = 3.15$ $20.00 - 3.15 = 16.85$
