Matt paid $70 for mp3 player.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost of mp3 player = $149.99

Discount = 20%

Amount of discount = 20% of 149.99

Amount of discount = $\frac{20}{100}*149.99$

Amount of discount = 0.2*149.99

Amount of discount = $29.99

Sale price = Cost of mp3 - Amount of discount

Sale price = $149.99 - 29.99 = \$120$

Rebate = $50

Amount paid by Matt = sale price - rebate

Amount paid by Matt = 120-50 =$70

Matt paid $70 for mp3 player.
