Isaac's concert ticket was less than the original price by 12%.

Solución

1. The original price of the ticket is \( \$50 \). 2. Applying a \(20\%\) discount reduces the price by: \[ \$50 \times 0.20 = \$10 \] So, the discounted price is: \[ \$50 - \$10 = \$40 \] 3. A \(10\%\) processing fee is then applied to the discounted price: \[ \$40 \times 0.10 = \$4 \] Adding the processing fee gives the final price: \[ \$40 + \$4 = \$44 \] 4. The final price is less than the original price by: \[ \$50 - \$44 = \$6 \] 5. To find by what percent the final price is less than the original price, we calculate: \[ \frac{\$6}{\$50} \times 100\% = 12\% \] Thus, Isaac's ticket was less than the original price by \(12\%\).

First, let's calculate the price after the discount. Isaac received a 20% discount on the original ticket price of $50. Discount amount: \( 0.20 \times 50 = 10 \) Price after discount: \( 50 - 10 = 40 \) Next, we calculate the 10% processing fee applied to the discounted price of $40. Processing fee amount: \( 0.10 \times 40 = 4 \) Finally, we find the total price Isaac paid after applying the processing fee: \( 40 + 4 = 44 \) Now, to determine how much less Isaac paid compared to the original price of $50: \( 50 - 44 = 6 \) To find the percentage saved from the original price: \( \left(\frac{6}{50}\right) \times 100 = 12 \) Isaac's concert ticket was less than the original price by approximately \( 12\% \).
