To calculate the total cost of Troy's order, we need to find the cost of each ingredient based on the quantity he wants.

  1. Ham:

    • Price per pound: $3.15
    • Pounds ordered: 8
    • Total cost for ham = 3.15 * 8 = $25.20
  2. Cheese:

    • Price per pound: $1.58
    • Pounds ordered: 15
    • Total cost for cheese = 1.58 * 15 = $23.70
  3. Turkey:

    • Price per pound: $3.40
    • Pounds ordered: 12
    • Total cost for turkey = 3.40 * 12 = $40.80

Next, add the total costs together:

  • Total cost = Cost of ham + Cost of cheese + Cost of turkey
  • Total cost = $25.20 + $23.70 + $40.80
  • Total cost = $89.70

However, it looks like $89.70 is not one of the responses listed. It appears that I might have miscalculated the order or the quantities. Please double-check the calculations for errors.

After checking calculations:

  • Ham: \(3.15 \times 8 = 25.20\)
  • Cheese: \(1.58 \times 15 = 23.70\)
  • Turkey: \(3.40 \times 12 = 40.80\)

Adding those:

  • \(25.20 + 23.70 + 40.80 = 89.70\)

Seems like the total might not match the provided options, but on verification, there is clearly a mismatch since none of the answers are correct. Please verify the prices or quantities as necessary or refer back to the source material for any potential discrepancies.
