Respuesta :

x = $120 - ($120 / 4)

Answer:

[tex]\$120(0.75)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that for a sale a store decreases its prices on all items by 25%. An item that cost $120 before the sale now cost [tex]\$120-0.25(\$120)[/tex]. We are asked to write another expression for the sale price.

Since the store offers an 25% sale offer, this means that cost of an item will be 75% of the original cost as 100%-25%=75%.

We can factor out 120 from our given expression as:

[tex]\$120-0.25(\$120)[/tex]

[tex]\$120(1-0.25)[/tex]

[tex]\$120(0.75)[/tex]

Therefore, another expression would be [tex]\$120(0.75)[/tex].
