Consider the following two monetary incentives when purchasing a desktop computer at the regular price of $299.
25% Off All Desktops with Regular Price of $200 or More.
$70 Rebate on Any Purchase of $200 or More.
Find the final price of the better incentive, after the discount has been applied. Round the answer to two decimal places.(1 point)
The final price of the computer after the discount from the better incentive has been applied is $
.
To find the final price after the discount has been applied, we need to compare the two incentives and see which one offers a greater discount.
Option 1: 25% Off All Desktops with Regular Price of $200 or More
This incentive offers a 25% discount on the regular price of $299. The discount amount is 25% of $299 which is $74.75. Therefore, the final price with this incentive would be $299 - $74.75 = $224.25.
Option 2: $70 Rebate on Any Purchase of $200 or More
This incentive offers a $70 rebate on any purchase of $200 or more. Since the regular price of $299 is above $200, we are eligible for this rebate. Therefore, the final price with this incentive would be $299 - $70 = $229.
Comparing the two final prices, we can see that option 1 offers a better discount. Therefore, the final price of the better incentive, after the discount has been applied, is $224.25.
Kyle wants to purchase 20 prefilled decorated eggs to set up an egg hunt for his nephews and nieces. Each egg is priced at $5.00, and the store offers two different incentives.
Incentive 1: Purchase any set of 3 prefilled eggs for $12.
Incentive 2: Take 20% off your entire purchase.
Determine whether incentive 1 or incentive 2 offers a better discount. Find the discount amount. Round the answer to two decimal places as necessary.

Incentive
offers a better discount. The discount amount of this incentive is $
To determine which incentive offers a better discount, we need to compare the total price of purchasing 20 prefilled decorated eggs using each incentive.
Incentive 1: Purchase any set of 3 prefilled eggs for $12.
To calculate the total price using this incentive, we divide the total number of eggs by the number of eggs per set and round up to the nearest whole number (since sets are sold as whole units). In this case, 20 eggs divided by 3 eggs per set equals 6.67 sets, which we round up to 7 sets.
Therefore, the total price using incentive 1 would be 7 sets multiplied by $12 per set, which equals $84.
Incentive 2: Take 20% off your entire purchase.
To calculate the total price using this incentive, we need to find 20% of the original price of the eggs.
20% of $5 (price per egg) is $1.
Therefore, the discount amount using incentive 2 would be $1 per egg.
The total discount amount would then be $1 multiplied by 20 eggs, which equals $20.
Comparing the total prices, $84 with incentive 1 versus $20 discount with incentive 2, we can see that incentive 2 offers a better discount.
Therefore, the discount amount of incentive 2 is $20.
