Asporting good store is offering an additional 30% off all clearance items and she purchases a pair of running shoes on clearance for $65 if the shoes originally cost $85 what was her total discount?

Total discount = $39.50

                  or 46.47 %

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to figure out what she will pay for the shoes.  She is getting 30 percent off the 65 dollars.

Discount = price * percent off

                = 65*.3

                = 19.50

The cost of her shoes is the price minus the discount.

Cost = 65- 19.5

        = 45.50

To find the total discount, take the original price and subtract the final cost.

Total discount = 85-45.50

                        = 39.50

To find the total percent discount, we use the formula

      total percent discount = (original - final)/original * 100

                                             = (85- 45.50)/85 * 100

                                             = 39.5/85*100

                                              = 46.47%

answer: the dogs need to shift their focus to human scent.

its because the dogs being trained are for search and rescue thus they need to be able to track humans and their specific scent
