Mrs. Diaz needs a new whiteboard for her classroom. She can buy it from Office Supply for $49.99 with a 15% teacher discount, or from Office Wholesale for $47.99 with a $10 rebate. Find the final price that Mrs. Diaz has to pay for the whiteboard after the better incentive is applied. Round the answer to two decimal places.(1 point)
The final price that Mrs. Diaz has to pay for the whiteboard using the better incentive is $
.
The final price with the teacher discount at Office Supply is $49.99 - 15% * $49.99 = $49.99 - 0.15 * $49.99 = $49.99 - $7.50 = $42.49.
The final price with the rebate at Office Wholesale is $47.99 - $10 = $37.99.
Since $37.99 < $42.49, the better incentive is the rebate.
Therefore, the final price that Mrs. Diaz has to pay for the whiteboard using the better incentive is $37.99.
Find the total amount saved if you buy five cans of soup at $2.99 each and use a “Buy 4 Get 1 Free” coupon.(1 point)
The total cost of buying five cans of soup at $2.99 each is 5 * $2.99 = $14.95.
With the "Buy 4 Get 1 Free" coupon, we will need to pay for only 4 cans of soup.
So, the total cost after using the coupon is 4 * $2.99 = $11.96.
The total amount saved is $14.95 - $11.96 = $2.99.
Analyze the incentive as shown here to find the final cost of a learning table set with a regular price of $229.
“20% off Entire Store”
If there is a 20% off discount on the entire store, the final cost of the learning table set can be calculated by subtracting 20% of the regular price from the regular price:
Final cost = $229 - (20/100) * $229
Final cost = $229 - $45.80
Final cost = $183.20
Therefore, the final cost of the learning table set with a regular price of $229, after the 20% off discount, is $183.20.
Determine which of the following is the better incentive offered on a wireless computer keyboard at the regular price of $24.99: 20% off, or a $6 rebate.(1 point)
To determine which incentive is better, we need to compare the final price after applying each incentive.
1. 20% off:
The final price with a 20% discount would be $24.99 - (20/100) * $24.99 = $24.99 - $4.998 = $19.992, which can be rounded to $19.99.
2. $6 rebate:
The final price with a $6 rebate would be $24.99 - $6 = $18.99.
Comparing the two options, we can see that the final price with the $6 rebate is lower than the final price with the 20% off discount. Therefore, the $6 rebate is the better incentive for the wireless computer keyboard.
Chris wants to replace the floor lamp in his living room. He can get the lamp he wants at Home Highlights at the already discounted price of $18.99, or he can buy it from Lighting Layouts at $25 with a coupon of 30% off. Determine which store offers the better incentive, and find the final price that Chris will pay for the floor lamp after the better discount is applied.(1 point)
To determine which store offers the better incentive, we need to compare the final price after applying each discount.
1. Home Highlights:
The floor lamp is already discounted at $18.99. Therefore, the final price at Home Highlights is $18.99.
2. Lighting Layouts:
The floor lamp is priced at $25, and there is a coupon for 30% off.
The discount from the coupon is (30/100) * $25 = $7.50.
Therefore, the final price at Lighting Layouts is $25 - $7.50 = $17.50.
Comparing the two options, we can see that the final price at Lighting Layouts, after applying the 30% off coupon, is lower than the already discounted price at Home Highlights. Therefore, Lighting Layouts offers the better incentive.
The final price that Chris will pay for the floor lamp at Lighting Layouts, after the 30% off coupon is applied, is $17.50.
