Let's calculate the total cost of Jamal's lunch. First, find the total cost of the drinks: 4 drinks × \$1.75 per drink = \$7.00 Next, find the total cost of the sandwiches: 4 sandwiches × \$7.50 per sandwich = \$30.00 Now, add the tip: \$7.00 (drinks) + \$30.00 (sandwiches) + \$7.00 (tip) = \$44.00 So, Jamal spends a total of \$44.00.

Solución

Let's denote the total cost of the drinks as \( D \) and the total cost of the sandwiches as \( S \). Given: - The cost of each drink is \( \$1.75 \). - The cost of each sandwich is \( \$7.50 \). - Jamal buys 4 drinks and 4 sandwiches. We can write the equations to represent the total cost of the drinks and sandwiches as follows: 1. Total cost of drinks: \( D = 4 \times \$1.75 \) 2. Total cost of sandwiches: \( S = 4 \times \$7.50 \) Now, we need to find the total cost of the lunch, which includes the cost of drinks, sandwiches, and the tip. Let's denote the total cost as \( T \). The total cost of the lunch is the sum of the cost of drinks, sandwiches, and the tip: \[ T = D + S + \$7 \] Substitute the values of \( D \) and \( S \) into the equation: \[ T = (4 \times \$1.75) + (4 \times \$7.50) + \$7 \] Now, we can calculate the total cost of the lunch. Calculate the value by following steps: - step0: Calculate: \(\left(4\times 1.75\right)+\left(4\times 7.5\right)+7\) - step1: Multiply the numbers: \(7+\left(4\times 7.5\right)+7\) - step2: Multiply the numbers: \(7+30+7\) - step3: Add the numbers: \(44\)

Beyond the Answer

First, let's break down the expenses: the cost of the drinks can be calculated as \( 4 \times 1.75 = 7 \) dollars, and the cost of the sandwiches is \( 4 \times 7.50 = 30 \) dollars. Adding these together gives us \( 7 + 30 = 37 \) dollars. Now, including the tip, we have \( 37 + 7 = 44 \) dollars in total. So, the equation representing the total cost can be written as: \[ \text{Total Cost} = (4 \times 1.75) + (4 \times 7.50) + 7 \] \[ \text{Total Cost} = 7 + 30 + 7 = 44 \] Thus, Jamal spends a total of \( \$44 \) on lunch for his family!
