Question

I need help finding the percentage to this word problem!

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

Each week a discount of 15% of the previous week.So the price will be 85% of the previous week (17/20 of the previous price)

We multiply the price from the previous week  by 0.85 to obtain the new price  

200 x 0.85 = 170

170 x0.85 = 144.50.....and so on

3)$ 122.82

4$)104.40

5).$88.74

6)$75.42

The shoes will be less than half in week 5

                 

 DECAY

The friend is not right

$30 less was only the first week

Each week the saving will be 85% of the  previous week. But the shoes will not be free in 2 months  On the week 8 the price will be $54.50
