-3.75+x=x/3
•3 •3
-11.25+3x=x
-3x -3x
-11.26=-2x

A shirt is regularly priced at 42$. It is on sale for 15% off of the regular price. What is the sale price of the shirt ?

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

$35.7

Step-by-step explanation:

you can convert 15% to a decimal by dividing by 100.

15/100 = .15

if you multiply the decimal by the cost of the shirt you get how much the discount is.

0.15 * $42 = 6.30

so a 15% discount on a $42 shirt is $6.30 off. So you subtract the discount from the total cost.

$42 - $6.30 = $35.70 that is the sale price of the shirt.
