Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 ways of looking at this problem

Method A

100% of the price is 598.00

75% of the price is x

So set up a proportion

100/75 = 598/x Cross Multiply

100x = 75 * 598 Simplify the right

100x = 44850 Divide both sides by 100

100x/100 = 44850/100

x = 448.50

Method Two

The other way is just to take 25% from 598

598 * 25/100 = 149.5

That's the amount of the reduction

598 - 149.5

448.5

Both answers work. You have to choose.

Contestant and like terms. What do they mean?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Like Terms: terms that have the same variable raised to the same power. So like 5x plus 5x plus 5. 5x and 5x are like terms.

I'm going to assume you mean Constant instead of contestant so

Constant: Terms without variables

Example: 5x+2x+7

5x and 2x are like terms

7 is a Constant
