Give the step-by-step reasoning process and then the final answer. Joey wants to buy the latest released pair of designer High Jump basketball sneakers. He plans to mow 3 neighbors’ lawns for $8 a lawn, sell 2 collectible figures to his friends for $9 each, and work an after-school job for 10 hours at $5 per hour. If his earnings just cover the price of the High Jump sneakers, how much do the shoes cost?
Joey will earn 3 * $8 = $24 mowing his neighbors’ lawns. He will earn 2 * $9 = $18 selling his collectable figures. He will earn 10 * $5 = $50 at his after - school job. The sneakers cost $24 + $18 + $50 = $92.
The final answer: 92.
