Answer 1

Answer: B. $78.00

Explanation:

60 + 25(2) + 50(3) - We can simplify this.

60 + 50 + 150 = 260

30% of 260 is 78.

0.3 x 260 = 78.

So, the discount was $78.00.

Answer 2

the answer is B. $78.00 you add everything together which equals 260 and u subtract 30% and 30% of 260 is 78 so B is ur answer
