80) To grow grass in Mel Smith's yard, a landscaper estimates that he will need 55 pounds of grass seed. Each pound will cost Mel $1.83. The landscaper will also charge Mel six hours of labor at $12.50 per hour. If Mel pays early, he will be entitled to a cash discount of $3.50. Assuming Mel takes advantage of the discount, how much does he pay the landscaper?

Multiply the 55 pounds of seed by the price of 1.83. Multiply the six hours by the rate of 12.50 and add these two products together to get 175.65. Subtract the $3.50 discount from the total to get $172.15
