Given:-

A landscaper receives a discount on each plant purchased. The original price of each plant is x dollars. The landscaper purchases 10 plants for a total of (10x - 20) dollars.

To find:-

How much is each plant discounted?

The discount on the 10 plants is,

[tex]20[/tex]

So now we use get,

[tex]\frac{Totaldiscountplants}{Noofdiscountplants}[/tex]

So we get,

[tex]\frac{20}{10}=2[/tex]

So the discount earned is $2.
