Answer 2

Answer:

The sale price of a hardcover book for which the original retail price was $29.00 is $15.66

Step-by-step explanation:

Original Price = $29

We are given that A bookstore manager marks down the price of older hardcover books by 46%.

So, Sale price = $29-\frac{46}{100} \times 29$

                      = $15.66$

Hence the sale price of a hardcover book for which the original retail price was $29.00 is $15.66
