Problem of the Day!
My friend Whitney bought a Christmas tree yesterday. She got 30% off the regular price for the tree and the regular price was $19.95. After she bought the tree she dragged and carried it to her apartment which was about 9 blocks from the store where she purchased the tree.
1. If a city block is about 1/20 mile, how far did Whitney carry the tree?
2. How much did the tree actually cost Whitney after the discount?
Add this problem to your regular homework and you will receive an extra point on your grade.
