Answer:
Mrs. Johnson's total bill was of $229.35.
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that the cost of 1 pair of jeans is, $29.95 or 2 pairs of jeans is $55.00.
Also assume the cost of 1 T-short is, $9.95 or 3 T-shirts is $25.00.
As Mrs. Johnson bought the clothes after seeing the sale she bought the items at the sale amount.
That is, she bought 6 pair of jeans for, [tex]\$55.00\times 3=\$165.00[/tex]
And 6 shirts for, [tex]\$25.00\times 2=\$50.00[/tex]
The cost of items is,
Cost of Items = Price of Jeans + Price of T-shirts
= 165.00 + 50.00
= 215.00
The sales tax amount spent be Mrs. Johnson was $14.345.
The total bill paid by her is,
Total Cost = Cost of items + Sales Tax
[tex]=215.00+14.35\\=229.35[/tex]
Thus, Mrs. Johnson's total bill was of $229.35.
