Abagail Mooney · Answer 1

D. 14.50 + (21.50) (0.67)

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the cost of the pants by the percent discount and add it to the cost of the shirt.

Branson Benson · Answer 2

D. 14.50 + (21.50) (0.67)

Step-by-step explanation:

A and B are automatically eliminated because 14.50 has to be added on. Since you are taking 33% off, you have to multiply 21.50 by 67 because that is how much you ARE paying.
