Answer: she is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

If Emily had a coupon for 20 percent off her purchase, this means that whatever she bought, the total amount would be reduced by 20%. She will be paying 80%

She finds a backpack she likes on the discount rack. It's original price is $60, but everything on the rack comes with a 30 percent discount.

This means that ordinarily,the amount she is meant to pay on the total goods she is buying is 30% lesser than $60. She will be paying

60 - (30/100 ×60)

60 - 0.3×60 = 60-18 = $42

Since she has a 20% coupon on total cost of goods bought, she would be paying

42 - (20/100 ×42)

42 - 0.2×42

= 42 - 8.4 = $33.6

Therefore,

If Emily says, "thirty percent and twenty percent make fifty percent so that her cost will be $30. She is incorrect. Her cost is $33.6
