Amount paid for the first book is $17.
Amount paid for the second book is 0.75 x 8 = $6
Total amount paid = $17 + $6 = $23
Total full cost of the two books = $17 + $8 = $25
Amount of discount = $25 - $23 = $2
% reduction =
Therefore, the <span>percent of the total cost of the two books reduced during the sale</span> is 8%

Answer: b. $22.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : A large pizza with no toppings costs $14.00. A large pizza with 2 toppings costs $17.50.
Let x denotes the number of toppings and y be the cost of that pizza.
Then, 
, m= cost per topping and c= cost of pizza without any topping.
From the given information.
c= $14
Function of cost becomes = 
For x= 2 and y= 17.50, we have
tex]3.50=m(2)[/tex] [Subtract 14 from both sides]
[Divide both sides by 2]
For c= 14 and m =1.75 , our function becomes.
Now, for x= 5
Hence, the cost of a pizza with 5 toppings = $22.75

So I am assuming we’re solving for a?
If so,
|(6/-a) - 2 | = 25
|(6/-a)| = 25 + 2
|(6/-a)| = 27
Multiply both sides of equation by -a and you get
6 = 27a
(6/27) = a
0.222 = a
So, we can check by plugging 0.222 in the original equation,
|(6/-0.222) - 2 |=25
|27-2|=25
25=25 which is correct
