Julie spend [tex]\$4[/tex] more money than Mindy on the dress.

Off/Discount is an amount that is subtracted from the regular price of an item.

The original price of dress [tex]= \$39.99[/tex]

Julie buys the dress for [tex]10\%[/tex] off at its original price.

So,

Julie buys the dress for [tex]= 39.99-(39.99*\frac{10}{100} )[/tex]

[tex]= \$35.991[/tex]

Mindy buys the same dress for [tex]20\%[/tex] off at its original price.

Mindy buys the same dress for [tex]= 39.99-(39.99*\frac{20}{100} )[/tex]

[tex]=\$31.992[/tex]

So,

Julie spend more money than Mindy on the dress [tex]=35.991-31.992[/tex]
