At the corner store, nico bought 5 pencils for $0.10 each and 3 pens for $0.50 each. he used t to represent the sales tax, in dollars, that he also paid. he paid a total of $2.12, including tax.

nico wrote this equation to represent what he paid. what errors, if any, did he make?

5(0.10) + 3(0.50) - t = 2.12
he should have multiplied 0.10 by 3 instead of 5.
he should have multiplied 0.50 by 5 instead of 3.
he should have added t instead of subtracting t.
he should have multiplied by t instead of subtracting t.
