Two stores sell the same refrigerator for the same original price. Store A advertises that the refrigerator is on sale for 15% o
ff the original price. Store B advertises that it is reducing the refrigerator’s price by $150. When Stephanie compares the sale prices of the refrigerator in both stores, she concludes that the sale prices are equal. Which equation models this situation? Let p represent the refrigerator’s original price.
A. 0.85p = p – 150
B. 0.85(p – 150) = p
C. 0.15p = p – 150
D. 0.15p = p + 180
<span>The correct answer is option A. Since store A is giving a discount of 15% on the original price i.e.$ p. Then, the price after discount will be equal to $ 0.85p . And, the second store B offers $150 less than the original price p i.e the price after reduction is $p-$150. Since both the proces after reduction are equal. Thus, $ 0.85p = $p-$150</span>
Answer: S(q) represents a quantity that changes at a constant rate per unit interval is true and S(q) represents a linear function is true. The rest is false. Hope this helps
