Question

  1. a store offers 25% of all items. if x is the original purchase price. select all of the expression which represent the final price with discount. 0.25y x - 0.25x 0.75x x

Explanation:

Step1: Understand the discount concept

A 25% discount means we pay 100% - 25% = 75% of the original price. 75% as a decimal is 0.75.

Step2: Calculate the final price

If the original price is \( x \), then the final price \( y \) after a 25% discount is \( y = x - 0.25x \) (subtracting 25% of \( x \) from \( x \)) or equivalently \( y = 0.75x \) (since \( 1 - 0.25 = 0.75 \)).

Answer:

The expression for the final price \( y \) with a 25% discount on original price \( x \) is \( y = 0.75x \) (or \( y = x - 0.25x \)).
