b)
tabitha is a member of the shopping club and wants to purchase a laptop selling for $990. how much does tabitha have to pay for the laptop?

Answer 1

Explanation:

580 - 58 (10% of 580) = 522

522 - discount price (20) = 502

Sally is paying 502 for her camcorder

990 - 247.5 (25% of 990) = 742.5

742.5 - 20 = 722.5

Sally is paying $502

Tabitha is paying $722.5
