5) Answer the question. lggy wants to purchase a six-cylinder sports car that costs \( \$ 15,690 \). The dealer is offering either a \( \$ 3,500 \) instant rebate or \( 20 \% \)-off discount. Which incentive should lggy use to pay the lowest price for the car? Step 1: Find the price after rebate. \( \$ 12,490 \) \( \$ 12,552 \) \( \$ 12,190 \) \( \$ 13,190 \)
Solution
Step 1 ：Step 1: Find the price after instant rebate: \(15,690 - 3,500 = 12,190\)
Step 2 ：Step 2: Calculate the 20% discount: \(15,690 * 0.20 = 3,138\)
Step 3 ：Step 3: Find the price after 20% discount: \(15,690 - 3,138 = 12,552\)
