Question

The original price of a mountain bike was reduced by $125.

If p= the mountain bike's original price in dollars, which algebraic expression
represents the reduced price?

Answer 1

p-125

Explanation:

p represents the original price, which was reduced by 125. therefore, the reduced price is represented by the algebraic expression p-125

Answer 2

Answer: p - 125

Step-by-step explanation: Here, notice that the value that we don't know is the mountain bike's original price in dollars.

Since the original price of the mountain bike was reduced by $125,

we take away 125 from our variable, which is p.

So we have p - 125.
