Answer 1

2a. The expression in terms of \( d \) to show how much Winonna and Takoda would pay in total if they bought their mother the set of power tools is:

\( d - (d \times 0.15) \)

The expression represents the original price \( d \) minus the discount of 15% on \( d \).

---

2b. If the original price of the power tools is $50.00 (d), the following calculations can be done for each present:

1. Power Tools:

   • Original price: \( d = 50.00 \)
   • Discount: 15%
   • Sales price = \( 50.00 - (50.00 \times 0.15) = 50.00 - 7.50 = 42.50 \)

2. Water Skis:

   • Original price: \( d = 50.00 \)
   • Discount: 30%
   • Sales price = \( 50.00 - (50.00 \times 0.30) = 50.00 - 15.00 = 35.00 \)

3. Jewelry:

   • Original price: \( d = 50.00 \)
   • Discount: 3%
   • Sales price = \( 50.00 - (50.00 \times 0.03) = 50.00 - 1.50 = 48.50 \)

Therefore, based on the options provided, the sales prices can be assigned as follows:

• Sales price of the POWER TOOLS: $42.50
• Sales price of the WATER SKIS: $35.00
• Sales price of the JEWELRY: $48.50

However, it seems notable that you only provided the responses of $31.50, $42.50, and $48.75. Therefore, I will use those prices for the assignment based on available selections:

• Sales price of the POWER TOOLS: $42.50
• Sales price of the WATER SKIS: $31.50
• Sales price of the JEWELRY: $48.75

Please verify if the provided options match what is intended based on expected discounts and calculations.
