Answer:
57
Step-by-step explanation:
100% of the price = $400
x % of the price = $320
we need to find x
using a proportion
100 : 400 = x : 320
100 * 320 = 400 * x
32000 = 400x
x = 32000 / 400
x = 80
That means the new price is 80% of the previous price.
100% - 80% = 20%
and based on this we can make a conclusion that the discount was 20%
I hope it is clear to you, feel free to ask anything about it :)

To solve the absolute value equation you first need to get everything not in the absolute value bars to the other side of the equation.
Step 1) Divide by 4
|n+8| = 14
*Remember: when solving absolute value equations, you make what the expression (n+8) is equal to negative and positive. Not the other way around.
Step 2) Make two equations
n+8 = 14
n+8 = -14
Solve and you'll see that n= 6 and -22
