Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is B) 0.8x

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Nancy is buying a new pair of boots. The store is having a sale and all boots are 20% off.

Let the original price is represented by x.

After getting 20% off the amount need to pay is:

Sale price = x-20% of x

$\text{Sale price}=x-\frac{20}{100}x$

$\text{Sale price}=x-0.2x$

$\text{Sale price}=0.8x$

Hence, the sales price of the boots is 0.8x.

Thus, the correct option is B) 0.8x
