Guillmero wants to purchase a new controller for his video game System. He has a $10 off coupon for big electronics. At costmart there is a 25% off sale on any item . regular price for the controllers at both stores is $49.99. Write an inequality and tell where guillermo will get the better price.

Answer 1

If you would like to know where Guillmero will get the better price, you can calculate this using the following steps:

a coupon: $49.99 - $10 = $39.99

Costmart: 25% of $49.99 = 25% * 49.99 = 25/100 * 49.99 = $12.4975 = $12.50
$49.99 - $12.50 = $37.49

Guillmero will get a better price at Costmart.
