Hope this helps

Answer 2

$1.3425

Explanation:

The regular price of the dinner buffet is 8.95. If this has a discount of 15%, we would have to multiply the total price by 0.15 and this would give us how much of the total amount is 15% and therefore it would give us how much of a discount the senior receives off of the 8.95 price

8.95 x 0.15 = 1.3425

Therefore, a senior citizen gets $1.3425 discount.
