You have a coupon for $5 off your total bill at Mama's Meals on Main a. How much will you pay after using the coupon if your bill was b dollars? b. Evaluate your expression to calculate the amount you will pay if your bill was $23.45 or $54.83

(a) Amount paid after using the coupon = $b - $5 = $ (b-5)

(b) Amount paid = $23.45 - $5 = $ (23.45-5) = $18.45

Amount paid = $54.83 - $5 = $ (54.83-5) = $49.83

Step-by-step explanation:

As we are given that:

Amount of coupon = $5

If amount of total bill = $b

Now we have to calculate the amount paid after using the coupon.

Amount paid after using the coupon = Total amount of bill - Amount of coupon

Amount paid after using the coupon = $b - $5 = $ (b-5)

Now we have to calculate the amount paid if bill was $23.45.

Amount paid after using the coupon = Total amount of bill - Amount of coupon

Amount paid = $23.45 - $5 = $ (23.45-5) = $18.45

Now we have to calculate the amount paid if bill was $54.83.

Amount paid after using the coupon = Total amount of bill - Amount of coupon

Amount paid = $54.83 - $5 = $ (54.83-5) = $49.83
