Answer:

The required expression to the model is 0.85x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

15% off the original price of a purchase.

Let the original price of the product is x.

If you are getting an off of 15% that means that you need to pay 100%-15%=85% of the original price.

85% of the original price (x) can be written as:

85\% \times x

\frac{85}{100}\times x

0.85\times x

0.85x

Thus, the required expression to the model is 0.85x
