Answer:
$18.36
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we have to find the cost of the cake for the customer who orders a month early.
We know that the original price of the cake is $30.
We also know that there was a 28% discount and a 15% discount added to the purchase.
Remember, You don't add discount percentages together, you discount the prices separately.
Solve:
First, apply the 28% discount.
30 · 0.28 = 8.40
30 - 8.40 = 21.60
Now apply the 15% discount to the new price.
21.60 · 0.15 = 3.24
21.60 - 3.24 = $18.36
They needed to pay $18.36 for the cake.
Answer:
it's 5 because 20 -15 is 5
Note that fiona cannot sell decimal number of cupcakes or muffins. That's why the options A and D are false.
Consider all remaining options:
B. 40 cupcakes and 80 muffins will cost $(40·3+80·2)=$(120+160)=$280, but Fiona Follies sold at least $300 worth of cupcakes and muffins. Thus, this option is false.
C. 60 cupcakes and 70 muffins will cost $(60·3+70·2)=$(180+140)=$320. Now consider expenses. $(60·0.75+70·0.5)=$(45+35)=$80. This option is true.
E. 80 cupcakes and 80 muffins will cost $(80·3+80·2)=$(240+160)=$400. Now consider expenses. $(80·0.75+80·0.5)=$(60+40)=$100 (exactly $100). This option is true.
Answer: correct options are C and E.
