25% is being taken off the original price, p, of each patio chairs.
That means the price of each patio chair is the full price, p, minus <span>25% of the original price.
1) To find 25% of the original price, multiply p (original price) by the decimal form of 25%, or 0.25. That means 25% off original price = 0.25p.
2) Now subtract 0.25p from the original price of the chairs to find the price of each (1) chair. p - 0.25p
Shylah is buying 4 chairs at that discounted price. That means you need to multiply the discounted price, </span> p - 0.25p, by 4. Shylah is paying 4(p-0.25p) total for the 4 chairs, which is answer choice B.
Since you can choose more than one choice, you can simplify 4(p-0.25p) by subtracting what is in the parathesis, then multiplying, following the order of operations:
4(p-0.25p)
= 4(0.75p)
= 3p
That is answer choice A.

Answer: Choices A and B, <span>3p and 4(p−0.25p).</span>
<h3>
Answer: Choice D) 3.7 * 10^6</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
Place a decimal point between the first two digits 3 and 7.
Now ask yourself how you can go from 3.7 back to the original value. Notice we can move the decimal point 6 spots to the right to go from 3.7 back to 3,700,000
Therefore, the exponent over the 10 is 6. The exponent is positive to mean we move the decimal point to the right. If we had a negative exponent, then we'd move left.
You can use a calculator to confirm that 3.7 * 10^6 = 3,700,000
--------------
Side notes:
3,700,000 = 3 million, 7 hundred thousand
3,700,000 = 3.7 million
Answer:
