Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Regular price = $829

On website :

80% discount off the regular price :

(100 - 80)% * regular price

20% * 829

0.2 * $829 = $165.8

At store :

70% off regular price :

(100 - 70)% * 829

0.3 * 829

= $248.7

10% off sale price :

(100 - 10)% * $248.7

0.9 * 248.7

= $223.83

Henry would pay less for the tablet on the website.

the answer is:

to solve the problem, we need to remember the quotient of power property, it's defined by the following relation:

if we have a quotienf of powers that have the same base, we need to keep the same base and subtract the exponent of the denominator power to the exponent of the numerator power.

so, we are given the expression:

then, calculating we have:

hence, the answer is:

have a nice day!
