Meryl spends a total of $68.82 for 2 pairs of sneakers
with the same cost. the sales tax is $5.32. meryl also
uses a coupon for $3.00 off her purchase. how much
does each pair of sneakers cost?

Each pair of sneakers did cost $ 33.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The amount paid by Meryl for two pairs of sneakers = $ 68.82

The sales tax = $ 5.32

So, The price of two pairs without sales tax = $ 68.82 - $ 5.32 = $ 63.5

The amount of coupon which Meryl applied = $ 3.00

So, The price of two pair of sneakers without coupon = $ 63.5 + $ 3.00 = $ 66.5

∵  The price of two pair of sneakers = $ 66.5

∴ The price of one pair of sneakers = $

I.e  The price of one pair of sneakers = $ 33.25

Hence each pair of sneakers did cost $ 33.25  , Answer
