VMariaS [17]

Answer:

Her first coupon ti be used is $50 off a purchase above $300

Final purchase price= $340

Step-by-step explanation:

Marie has two coupons

one for a 15% discount and one for $50 off any purchase above $300.

The stores allow the two coupons to be combined and she spends a total of $450.

Her first coupon ti be used is $50 off a purchase above $300.

So Marie have $400 now

15% off $400= 400-(0.15*400)

15% off $400 = 400-60

15% off $400 =$ 340
