Write an inequality to describe the number of subscriptions Andre must sell to reach his goal.
It would be 40.
60 minus 20 = 40
Difference means subtraction
Answer:
40%
Step-by-step explanation:
Original price = x
Sale = 20% off
20% / 100 = 0.2 to convert from a percent to a decimal
Sale = x - 20% of x = x - 0.2x = 0.8x
Sale price = y = 0.8x
Reduction of sale prices = 25% = 0.25
Reduction = y - 25% of y = y - 0.25y = 0.75y
End price in terms of original price (x):
0.75y = 0.75(0.8)x
= 0.6x
End price = 0.6 or 60% of original price, coming out to a 100-60 = 40% overall percentage reduction
