Question

Sheldon bought a $20 book at a 35% discount. He wrote an expression to find the discounted price.

20−0.35(20) ​


Which expression is equivalent to discounted price Sheldon paid?

A. (1−0.35)20
B.(1+0.35)20
C.(20−0.35)20
D. 20+0.35(20)

Answer 1

The answer is A (1-0.35)20
because all you have to do is subtract what's in the parentheses and you get 0.65 then you multiply by 20 and you get 13 which is the same from the original equation.

Hope this helps
