Question

Eric and Mark went to a ball game and visited the concession stand. They each got a hot dog, and Mark got a large soda and a bag of peanuts. Eric had a coupon for $3 off the cost. Mark paid the rest, which came to $11.50. Peanuts cost $4, and a hot dog costs $3.50. What was the cost for a large soda? (1 point)

$7.50
$1.50
$4.00
$3.50

Answer 1

3.50

Explanation:

.................

Answer 2

Hot dog cost = 3.50x2 = $7

Peanuts cost = $4

A Coupon of $3

Total paid amount by mark = $11.50

Cost of a large soda = ?

Total spent amount along with the coupon = 11.50 + 3 = $14.50

The cost of hot dogs and peanuts = 7 + 4 = $11

Thus the cost of large soda = 14.50 – 11 = $3.50
