1.) In a department store, a $120 belt is marked 25% off. What is the discount?
What is the sale price of the dress?

$30

$90

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

    Selling price of belt = $120

     Percentage discount = 25%

Unknown:

Discount = ?

Sale price of the dress  = ?

Solution:

Discount is a reduction in the price of a commodity.

     Discount  = percentage discount x selling price of belt

 Input the parameters and solve;

I.    Discount  = x 120 = $30

II. Sale price of the dress;

               = selling price - discount amount

                 = $120 - $30

                  = $90

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
