Answer 1

Answer:

$12.499 is the second discount and $112.491 is the amount saved

Step-by-step explanation:

10% of 124.99=$12.499

since 12.499 is less than $100,

2nd discount=$12.499

124.99-12.499=$112.491

Answer 2

He saved $36.3972

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of jakcet = $129.99

Discount% = 10%

Cost after discount = 129.99 -0.1(129.99)=116.991

So, The cost is more than 100

So he will get an additional discount of 20%

Cost after 20% discount = 116.991-0.2(116.991)=93.5928

So amount saved = 129.99-93.5928

Hence he saved $36.3972
