Answer:

Option b. $7.68

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

1) The music store is having a 15% off sale on all classical music cds

$100\%-15\%=85\%=85/100=0.85$

If the cd has a price of $23.99

then

The price with 15% off sale is equal to

$\$23.99(0.85)=\$20.39$

2) Lyell has a coupon for 20% off any classical music cd.

$100\%-20\%=80\%=80/100=0.80$

If the cd with a 15% off sale has a price of $20.39

then

The price with a coupon for 20% off is equal to

$\$20.39(0.80)=\$16.31$

<em>Find the difference between the original price and the final price</em>

$\$23.99-\$16.31=\$7.68$
