There is no algebraic way of isolating X unfortunately.
For these equations, you have to solve with numerical approximation.
I suggest Newtons method if you know calculus.

Answer:
x = 11.85
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2+(x-4)^2=202
x^2+(x-4)(x-4)=202
x^2 + x^2 - 4x - 4x + 16 = 202
2x^2 - 8x + 16 = 202
2x^2 - 8x - 186 = 0
Apply the quadratic equation and you'll get x as:
x=11.85 or x=-7.85
x cannot be negative
therefore x = 11.85
As you want a 60% discount, you must find 40% of $12.25.
40% of $12.25 is the same as 2/5 of $12.25.
Now, 12.25 / 5 = 2.45
And, 2.45 x 2 = 4.90
--------------
This means that 60% off $12.25 is $4.90.
