To find out how much cash the customer will pay before taxes, we can calculate the total cost of the items without considering the gift card.
The drill costs $100 and the customer is buying two drill bit sets priced at $15 each. So, the total cost of the drill and drill bit sets is:
100 (drill) + 2 * 15 (drill bit sets)
= 100 + 30
= $130
Since the customer is using a $50 gift card, they will deduct this amount from the total cost. Therefore, the amount the customer will pay in cash before taxes is:
Total cost - Gift card amount
= $130 - $50
= $80
So, the customer will pay $80 in cash before taxes.
