Consider the following two monetary incentives when purchasing a desktop computer at the regular price of $299. 25% Off All Desktops with Regular Price of $200 or More. $70 Rebate on Any Purchase of $200 or More. Find the final price of the better incentive, after the discount has been applied. Round the answer to two decimal places.(1 point) The final price of the computer after the discount from the better incentive has been applied is $.

Answer 1

The final price of the computer after the discount from "25% Off All Desktops with Regular Price of $200 or More" has been applied is:

Regular price of the computer = $299
Discount = 25% = 25/100 = 0.25

Discounted price = Regular price - (Regular price * Discount)
Discounted price = $299 - ($299 * 0.25)
Discounted price = $299 - $74.75
Discounted price = $224.25

The final price of the computer after the discount is $224.25.
