Let's form the difference of the two expressions and see what we can learn.

(2y -x) -(2x -y) = 2y -x -2x +y = 3y -3x = 3(y -x)

Since y > x, this is positive, so 2y -x is greater than 2x -y.

$45 = retail price.

To find 40% off of that, use

$45 - .4($45) = sale price

$27 = sale price (aka discount price)
