A local taqueria sold 11,321 carne asada tacos, 13, 132 chicken tacos, and 8,982 carnitas tacos last year. If each taco was sold for $3.89, which value best estimates their total earnings from tacos? (1 point)
$130,000
$90,000
$160,000
$33,000
To find the total earnings from tacos, we need to multiply the number of each type of taco sold by the price per taco and then sum the results.
For carne asada tacos: 11,321 tacos * $3.89/taco = $44,022.69
For chicken tacos: 13,132 tacos * $3.89/taco = $51,052.68
For carnitas tacos: 8,982 tacos * $3.89/taco = $34,907.98
Adding up these amounts gives us: $44,022.69 + $51,052.68 + $34,907.98 = $130,983.35
Therefore, the best estimate for their total earnings from tacos is $130,000. Answer: $\boxed{\$130,000}$.
