When you see a "%" you need to ask " a percent of what"?
Here, it's a percent of the original prize, so the discount is 20% of the original prize, that is 20% of 35.
20% is also 20/100 or 1/5, so we can calculate this like this:
so the discount is 7 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify</em>
5x² - 2 = -12
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- [Addition Property of Equality] Add 2 on both sides: 5x² = -10
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide 5 on both sides: x² = -2
- [Equality Property] Square root both sides: x = ±√-2
- Rewrite: x = ±√-1 · √2
- Simplify: x = ±i√2
