Answer 1

Answer:

Final cost of the item is $19.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Expression representing the final cost of an item with original price = $p and discount = 15% will be,

Final cost = (p - 0.15p)

If the original price p = $23

By substituting p = 23 in the expression given,

Final cost after discount = 23 - (0.15)23

                                         = 23 - 3.45

                                         = $19.55

Therefore, final cost of the item is $19.55
