To determine which pair of sneakers has the lowest sale price, we need to calculate the sale price for each pair after applying the respective discount.
-
15% off $30: \[ \text{Discount} = 0.15 \times 30 = 4.5 \] \[ \text{Sale Price} = 30 - 4.5 = 25.5 \]
-
30% off $38: \[ \text{Discount} = 0.30 \times 38 = 11.4 \] \[ \text{Sale Price} = 38 - 11.4 = 26.6 \]
-
20% off $35: \[ \text{Discount} = 0.20 \times 35 = 7 \] \[ \text{Sale Price} = 35 - 7 = 28 \]
-
10% off $29: \[ \text{Discount} = 0.10 \times 29 = 2.9 \] \[ \text{Sale Price} = 29 - 2.9 = 26.1 \]
Now, let's list the sale prices:
- 15% off $30: $25.50
- 30% off $38: $26.60
- 20% off $35: $28.00
- 10% off $29: $26.10
The pair of sneakers with the lowest sale price is $25.50 (15% off $30).
