Korey starts a small carwash business to save up some cash. He decides to offer two different price packages to his clients. Package A charges $15.00 for the first car wash and a dollar less for each car wash after. Package B charges $28.00 for the first car wash, but the price is cut by 25% for each of the next car washes.

How much would the 3rd car wash be in package A?

Answer: $13.00

Because it states in the question: Package A charges $15.00 for the first car wash and a dollar less for each car wash after. If they were to wash two cars then a third, the first car would be $15.00 while the second would be $14.00 and the third would be $13.00 since package A is subtracting a dollar every wash.
