Question

Worst Buy, a local electronics store, advertises a sale price of 25% off all televisions 42" or bigger. Model the sale price (original price minus discount) of those televisions, y, as a function of the regular price of the TV, x.

Answer 1

25% off means it would be selling for 75% of the original price ( 100% - 25% = 75%).

To find the sale price you would multiply the regular price by 75%:

The equation would be y = 0.75x
