How much does each pair of sneakers cost if Meryl spends a total of 68.82 for 2 pairs of sneakers with same cost and the sales tax is 5.32 and she uses a coupon for 3.00 off her purchase?

Answer 1

43.46

Answer 2

Let's denote the cost of each pair of sneakers as x. Meryl spent a total of 68.82 for 2 pairs, so 2x = 68.82. Adding the sales tax of 5.32 and subtracting the coupon of 3.00 from the total, we get 2x + 5.32 - 3.00 = 68.82. Solving this equation, we find that each pair of sneakers costs $33.25.

Answer 3

If she spends a TOTAL of $68.82 on 2 pairs of sneakers each of which is the same cost, then each pair cost HER $68.82/2 = $34.41.

All the rest of the information is irrelevant.

Answer 4

The net cost is 35.57
