Question

A.How much will a customer save on a sweater that is originally priced at $24.95 and reduced 30%? B. A gaming system was priced at $399,95. What is the cost of the system after it is discounted 40% and then a customer uses a 10% valued customer discount?

Answer 1

A. Given:

Original price = $24.95

And a discount of 30% was given.

The amount the customer will save is:

`(30)/(100)\ast24.95=\text{ 0.3}\ast24.95\text{ = \$7.485}`

Therefore, the customer will save $7.485

B. Given:

Original price of gaming system = $399.95

A discount of 40% was given, also a customer uses a 10% valued customer disount.

Thus, the total discount the customer has is:

40% + 10% = 50%

The discounted amount will be:

`(50)/(100)\ast399.95=199.975`

The cost of the system after the discount is:

399.95 - 199.975 = $199.975

ANSWER:

A. $7.485

B. $199.975
