the expression shown can be used to calculate the amount of money in dollars a cery store customer should receive in change when paying with $50. 50 - (14 + 12 + 2(5) + 2(2) + 3) amount of change in dollars should the customer receive?

Respuesta :

we are given the following expression:

[tex]50-(14+12+2\mleft(5\mright)+2\mleft(2\mright)+3)[/tex]

To solve this expression we will first solve the products inside the parenthesis:

[tex]50-(14+12+10+4+3)[/tex]

Now we will add the number inside the parenthesis:

[tex]50-(43)[/tex]

Now we solve the difference:

[tex]7[/tex]

Therefore, the change is $7.
