Respuesta :
The final price would be $130.71 Which means she was off by a lot. So C would be the answer.
Answer:
No. Nezzie has taken successive discounts on the total, but the coupon is just on the playhouse.
Step-by-step explanation:
Nezzie buys a playhouse for $100.29 and a music center for $59.99.
After 10% off on playhouse, its price is = [tex]100.29-(0.10\times100.29)[/tex] =$90.26
After 10% off on music center, its price is = [tex]59.99-(0.10\times59.99)[/tex] =$53.99
She has a coupon for an additional 15% off on the playhouse. Means after the coupon, the price of the playhouse will be :
[tex]90.26-(0.15\times90.26)[/tex]
= $76.72
Nezzie estimates that her total, after discounts, will be about $122.
Her total in actual is = [tex]53.99+76.72=130.71[/tex] dollars
So, Nezzie did nor estimate correctly.
The correct option is -
No. Nezzie has taken successive discounts on the total, but the coupon is just on the playhouse.
Means first she subtracted 10% from the total amount (100.29+59.99) and then she subtracted 15% from it.
Total = 160.28
10% off = [tex]160.28-16.028=144.25[/tex]
15% off = [tex]144.25-(0.15\times144.25)[/tex]=$122.6
