The price of the sweater was reduced by 40%
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; Cost before reduction was $20. The cost after reduction was 12$. Cost reduced= cost before reduction - cost after reduction
Cost reduced= $20 - $12 = $8
Step 2; We must find how much of the cost was reduced from the initial cost i.e. how much $8 is to $20. To do this we must convert it into a percentage. We divide the $8 with the $20 to get a value. This value must be multiplied with a 100 to be converted into a percentage.
Cost by which sweater was reduced= 
* 100 = 0.4 * 100 = 40
So the price of the sweater was reduced from $20 to $8 which equates to a reduction in 40%.

Answer:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given in the question the equation
y = -x² + 2x - 1
To find the x-intercept, substitute in 0 for y
0 = -x² + 2x - 1
To find value of x use quadratic equation
x = -b ± √b²-4ac / 2a
here a = -1
b = 2
c = -1
x1 = -2 + √2²-4(-1)(-1) / 2(-1)
= -2 + 0 / -2
= -2 / -2
= 1
x2 = -2 - √2²-4(-1)(-1) / 2(-1)
= -2 - 0 / -2
= -2 / -2
= 1
