Answer :

Answer:

12.91

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that Each woman's total is modeled with this expression:

9 + 1.34 + 1/2(3.50 + 1.74)

To solve this we will use the BODMAS acronym.

So the first operation will be to solve what's in the bracket to give;

9 + 1.34 + 1/2(5.14)

Let's now carryout the multiplication of the bracket to give;

9 + 1.34 + 2.57

Using the addition operation now gives us: 12.91
