Answer

PART A

Final Cost = $325

PART B

Price after this further discount is applied = $292.5

Step-by-step explanation

PART A

Mia needs a computer that is $500

The computer is 35% for those that purchase on Saturday.

Final Cost = (Original Price) - (Discount)

Original Price = $500

Discount = 35% of $500 = 0.35 (500) = $175

Final Cost = (Original Price) - (Discount)

Final Cost = 500 - 175 = $325

PART B

There is a further 10% discount for those that arrive at 9:00 am

Price after this further discount is applied = 325 - (10% of 325)

= 325 - [(0.1)(325)]

= 325 - 32.5

= $292.5

Hope this Helps!!!
