Answer 1

Answer:the total discounted price for two dogs to be groomed is 22.75

Step-by-step explanation:

A dog groomer is offering 20% off a full groom for one dog, and 15% off for each additional dog. Normally, a full groom costs $65 for each dog.

If you decide to take your two furry friends to be groomed,

the discount on the first one would be

20/100 × 65 = 0.2 × 65 = 13

the discount on the second one would be

10/100 × 65 = 0.15 × 65 = 9.75

the total discounted price for two dogs to be groomed would be

13 + 9.75 = 22.75
