Answer:

<u>$13.59</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

((2 1/2)lbs grapes)*($2.64/lbs grapes) + ((2 3/4)lbs strawberries)*($3.09 lbs strawberries) = total cost before discount.

Total Cost = (2.5)*(2.64) + (2.75)*(3.09)

Total Cost =  15.0975 round to $15.10

10% discount = (1 - 0.10) = 0.90

(0.90)*($15.10) = <u>$13.59</u>

Sonja [21]

Answer:

  b. Subtracting the base period amount from the analysis period amount, dividing the result by the base period amount, then multiplying that amount by 100%

Step-by-step explanation:

A percentage change can be computed from ...

  ((new amount) -(old amount))/(old amount) × 100%

This best matches the description of choice B.

_____

<em>Comment on the answer</em>

The formula offered in the question will show the "percent change" from 100 to 103 as 3. It is not 3; rather, it is 3%. The final multiplication must be by 100% in order to arrive at the proper number.
