Respuesta :

Answer:

7. 9 dollar discount

8 basketball would be 36 dollars

8. you would just subtract the discount (9 dollars) from 45 dollars to get 36 dollars

HOPE THIS HELPED

The discount amount on the basketball would be $9.00.

You take the percentage and turn it into a decimal, so 20% becomes 0.20 and then you times it by whatever the original cost is. So, 0.20x45 is 9. Making the discount $9.00 off!

The cost of the basketball after the discount is subtracted is $36.00. Because $45.00-$9.00=$36.00

Hope it helps!
