Select the correct answer in each row.

Answer 1

To determine the lowest discounted price for each shirt, compare the prices after applying each discount.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine which discount offers the lowest discounted price for each shirt, we need to compare the prices after applying each discount. Let's calculate the discounted price for each discount:

1. Discount 1: 20% off the price of any item - Multiply the price by 0.8 to get the discounted price.
2. Discount 2: $5 rebate on any item - Subtract $5 from the price to get the discounted price.
3. Discount 3: $10 off the price of any item over $20 - Subtract $10 from the price if it is over $20 to get the discounted price.

By comparing the discounted prices for each discount, we can determine which discount offers the lowest price for each shirt.
