Answer:

The original price of an item less a discount of 20% is 0.8p where p is the original price

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to write an algebraic expression that represents the original price of an item less a discount of 20%

Let the original price of the item be p

The meaning of the ‘less’ is that we are subtracting 20% of the price from the original price ;

So 20% of the price will be 20/100 * p = 20p/100 = p/5 = 0.2p

So let’s take this away from the original price p

That will be;

p - 0.2p = p(1-0.2) = 0.8p

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

first let's try to get just 3x on one side. to do this we can subtract 2 from both side of the equation.

3x+(2-2)=11-2

3x=9

now we have to isolate the variable we can divide both sides by 3:

3x/3=9/3

x=3

and you get the answer that x is 3
