Answer 1

To determine if George has enough money and to calculate his change, we need to first calculate the total cost of his purchases.

1. Cost of the movie: $9.00
2. Cost of the pretzel: $2.65
3. Cost of the drink: $1.35
4. Cost of two veggie cups: 2 * $1.74 = $3.48

Now, let's add these amounts together:

\[ 9.00 + 2.65 + 1.35 + 3.48 = 16.48 \]

Now, we can find out how much money George will have left after making these purchases:

\[ Total = 20.00 - 16.48 = 3.52 \]

Thus, George can make the purchase and he will have $3.52 left over.

The correct response is:

Yes, his change is $3.52.
