Answer:
Answer would be x=1.
Step-by-step explanation:
18.95x0.75=14.2125
18.95-14.2125=4.73
You will pay $4.73
They each would pay 2.55
12.75 divided by 5 = 2.55
The easiest way to calculate this, since you don't need to know what the discount is, if the decrease is 4% you still have 96%.
Multiply 29,000 x .96= $27,840.
If you do it the other way, .04 x 29000= 1160. Then subtract 29000-1160=27850.
