Show the graphs so we can see
Old price: p1 = $ 3.90;
New price: p2 = $ 3.40.
The percentual decrease is given by
d(%) = [ (p2 - p1) / p1 ] * 100 %
d(%) = [ (3.40 - 3.90) / 3.90 ] * 100 %
d(%) = [ - 0.50 / 3.90 ] * 100 %
d(%) = - 0.128 * 100 %
d(%) = - 12.8 % (approximately)
So the price fell 12.8 % approximately.
I hope this helps. =)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Let the price before tax be x, then we have:</u>
- x + 8% = 372.60
- x + 0.08x = 372.60
- 1.08x = 372.60
- x = 372.60 / 1.08
- x = 345
The initial price was $345
