To find out which store offers the better incentive, we need to calculate the total discount amount in each store.
At Shoe Land, if Katelyn buys two pairs of shoes with a regular price of $45 each, she will get 50% off on the second pair.
Therefore, the discount for the second pair is $45 * 50% = $22.50.
At Everything Shoe, if Katelyn buys two pairs of shoes with a regular price of $45 each, she will get a 30% discount on both pairs.
Therefore, the discount for each pair is $45 * 30% = $13.50.
The total discount amount at Everything Shoe is $13.50 * 2 = $27.
The difference in the discount amounts between the two stores is $27 - $22.50 = $4.50.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
Shoe Land offers a better incentive, and the difference in the discount amounts is $4.50.
