Miss Davies has decided to make T-shirts for herself and her mother and father... her mom wants a blue shirt, her dad wants a green shirt and Miss Davies wants a black shirt... if each letter costs $0.78 and each vowel costs $0.53, how much will it cost for Miss Davies to have the saying, 'May the fourth be with you' printed on all of the t-shirts? Miss Davies and her mom need medium sized shirts and her dad needs an X-large. Show your work.
Miss Davies is hoping to buy all 3 shirts with the saying for $30.00... did she over and underestimate the price ... calculate how much she is either under or over the amount. Show your work

These are a few of the rocks I made today with my new paint markers... the spiderman and the penguin are for the children down the street as a surprise that I am going to place on their doorstep... the "you  matter" is for my 80 year-old neighbour that I am keeping an "eye" on... apparently he trusts me enough that he is going to  let me cut his hair when we are allowed to visit again ...
