Question

Thanksgiving Meal Challenge

Considering the final price of the meal, would you rather have a $25 gift

card to apply toward to total price or a 35% off coupon? Show your work

and explain.

Answer 1

If the price of the meal is less than $71, then the $25 gift card would be better than the 35% off coupon.

Let y represent the price of the meal.

For a $25 gift card to be applied, the final price is:

Final price = y - 25

For a 35% off coupon, the final price is:

Final price = y - 0.35y = 0.65y

y - 25 < 0.65y

0.35y < 25

y < 71.42

If the price of the meal is less than $71, then the $25 gift card would be better than the 35% off coupon.
