Answer 1

Answer:

The cost of small soft drink is $2.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 1 medium popcorn = $4.40

Cost of 1 small of drink =x

Cost of 1 movie ticket = $9

Cost of 2 medium popcorn =2 × $4.40 = $8.80

Cost of 1 soft drink =1 × x =x

Cost of 2 movie tickets = 2 × $9 = $18

Amount of gift certificate, A = $10

Total amount of bill ,T= $19.30

T = $8.80 + x + $18 - A

$19.30 = $8.80 + x + $18 - $10

x = $19.30 - $8.80 - $18 + $10

x = $2.50

The cost of small soft drink is $2.50.
