Georgia needs to buy flea treatment for her dog. pet store 1 is offering the flea treatment for 40 percent off plus an additional 25 percent off their regular price of $33. pet store 2 is offering the same flea treatment for 55 percent off plus an additional 5 percent off their regular price of $34. which location is offering the better price and how much cheaper is it?

Pet Store--1

They are  offering the flea treatment for 40 percent off plus an additional 25 percent off their regular price of $33.

This means that the cost of treatment after a off of 40% is:

33-0.40×33=$ 19.8

Now after a additional discount of 25% , a person has to pay (100-25)%=75% of the above discounted price.

i.e. 0.75 of 19.8

= 0.75×19.8

= $ 14.85

Hence, the total cost of treatment in store -1 is: $ 14.85

Pet Store--2

They are offering the same flea treatment for 55 percent off plus an additional 5 percent off their regular price of $34.

This means that the cost of treatment after a off of 55% is:

34-0.55×34=$ 15.3

Now after a additional discount of 5% , a person has to pay (100-5)%=95% of the above discounted price.

i.e. 0.95 of 15.3

= 0.95×15.3

= $ 14.535

Hence, the total cost of treatment in store -1 is: $ 14.535

Hence, the location which is offering the better price is: Pet Store-2

The amount by which it is cheaper than store 1 is:

= 14.85-14.535

= $ 0.315

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:

i think it might be a but you might want a second opinion
