Tracy and ma liked their special blended coffee: however, they really wanted to save for an exciting vacation this year on their third wedding anniversary. They decided they would try making their own coffee. It was pretty tedious, and at first they just focused on the additional time and effort i took. But then tey noticed they were having more money left over at the end of the month. They decided to estimate how much they were saving each month. Tracy had coffee once a day, and the special blend she bought ar Donna's Coffee Stop cost $3.00 a cup. Max bought coffee ar Donna's Coffee stop twice a day. he bought several different types os special blends that cost $4.00 acup on average.
1. If tracy and max estimated their purchases using a 30 day month, find the total amount they both spend on coffee in one month at Donnahs Coffee Stop.
2. If tracy and Max make their own specialty blend of coffee, they estimate that it cost about $1.00 for every two cups of coffee. Determine how much they are saving by making their own.
3. They determined theat the vacation they would like to take for their anniversary would cost $2250. If they put the money saved by making their owncoffee into a vacation account, would their be enough money in eight months to take their vacation?
