Answer 1

Answer: After her purchases, the change in the amount of money that she had is $7.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of pounds of apple = 4

Cost per pounds = $2

Total cost of apple would be

`2* 4=\$8`

Number of heads of lettuce = 2

Cost of per lettuce = $1

So, Total cost of lettuce would be

`2* 1=\$2`

Total amount for apple and lettuce would be

`\$8+\$2=\$10`

Amount for off = $3

So, it becomes

`\$10-\$3=\$7`

Hence, after her purchases, the change in the amount of money that she had is $7.
