Each pair of sneakers cost $33.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total spent by Mark = $68.82

Sales tax = $5.32

Coupon used = $3.00

Price without sales tax = Total spent - sales tax

Price without sales tax = 68.82 - 5.32 = $63.50

As Mark used coupon, we will add this amount.

Amount of sneakers = Price without sales tax + Coupon used

Amount of sneakers = 63.50+3.00 = $66.50

As this is price of two sneakers, we will divide it by 2;

Cost of one sneaker = $\frac{66.50}{2}=\$33.25$

Each pair of sneakers cost $33.25
