I apologize for the incorrect response. Thank you for pointing out the mistake.
To determine which incentive is better, let's calculate the total price for five fruit smoothies under each incentive:
Incentive 1: Buy 3 or more fruit smoothies for $7 each.
If Ivaan buys 5 fruit smoothies under this incentive, he will pay $7 per smoothie for the first 3 smoothies, and the remaining 2 smoothies will also be priced at $7 each.
Total price = (3 smoothies * $7) + (2 smoothies * $7) = $21
Incentive 2: 10% off any fruit smoothie at the regular price of $8.
If Ivaan buys 5 fruit smoothies under this incentive, he will get a 10% discount on each smoothie.
Total price = 5 smoothies * $8 * (1 - 10%) = 5 smoothies * $8 * 0.9 = $36
Therefore, the better incentive for Ivaan to buy five fruit smoothies is Incentive 1, where he will pay a total amount of $21.
