Answer:

$12

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Cost of 1 pepper plant=$5

Discount coupon on buying 3 plants=20%

Discount coupon on buying 4 plants=30%

We have to find the sale price of 3 pepper plants after a 20% discount.

Cost of 3 pepper plants=[tex]3\times 5=[/tex]$15

20% of $15=[tex]\frac{20}{100}\times 15=[/tex]$3

Sale price of 3 pepper plants=Cost price of 3 pepper plants-discount

Sale price of 3 pepper plants=$15-$3

Sale price of 3 pepper plants=$12

Hence, the sale price of 3 pepper plants after 20 discount=$12

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

because 3x4=12

20%-12=7
