Suppose that you were in an ice cream shop. You decide to buy four small vanilla cones and 3 medium chocolate cones. The medium chocolate cone and the small vanilla are $3.00 a piece. On top of that, you bought a small piņa colada shake for $2.00. How much did you pay in total if there were no tax?
