For lunch, 4 friends bought a large salad to share for $9.95 and 4 drinks for $1.50 each. The tax was $1.00. They split the cost evenly.
Give the expression for the amount each paid.
Expression:
[(9.95 + (4*1.5) + 1.00) / 4]
Simplifying:
[(9.95 + 6 + 1) / 4]
= $4.485
Therefore, each person paid approximately $4.49.

Part B
How many customers would it have in 3 days?
A.
387 customers
B.
930 customers
C.
1,170 customers
D.
1,332 customers
Part A: (27 + 12) x 10 x 3
Part B:
(27 + 12) x 10 x 3 = 1170
Therefore, the pizza shop would have 1,170 customers in 3 days. Answer is (C).
To find the expression for the amount each friend paid, we need to calculate the total cost of the lunch and then divide it equally among the 4 friends.
First, let's calculate the cost of the salad, the drinks, and the tax separately.
The cost of the salad is $9.95.
The cost of the drinks is 4 drinks * $1.50 per drink = $6.00.
The tax is $1.00.
Now, let's calculate the total cost by adding the cost of the salad, drinks, and tax together.
Total cost = Cost of salad + Cost of drinks + Tax
Total cost = $9.95 + $6.00 + $1.00
Total cost = $16.95
Since the friends want to split the cost evenly, we need to divide the total cost by the number of friends, which is 4.
Amount each friend paid = Total cost / Number of friends
Amount each friend paid = $16.95 / 4
Amount each friend paid = $4.2375
However, it is not practical to give an amount in cents, so we need to round it to a more reasonable value.
Therefore, the expression for the amount each person paid is approximately $4.24.
