▹ Answer

Her dad's swimsuit costs $65.

▹ Step-by-Step Explanation

Since Monica's swimsuit is $35, we will subtract that from the total amount spent, $170.

$170 - $35 = $135

Since Monica's mom's swimsuit costs 2x Monica's we will multiply 35 * 2:

$35* 2 = $70

We will now add Monica's cost and her moms' cost:

$35 + $70 = $105

To find Monica's dads' cost, we will subtract 105 from 170:

$170 - $105 = $65

Her dad's swimsuit costs $65.

Hope this helps!
