Let:
Op = Original price = $709
Dp = Discount on the table
a = Discount = 20% = 0.2
The discount on the table will be:
[tex]\begin{gathered} Dp=Op\cdot a \\ Dp=709\cdot0.2 \\ Dp=141.8 \end{gathered}[/tex]Answer:
The discount on the price of the tablet is $141.8
The sale price Sp, will be given by:
[tex]\begin{gathered} Sp=Op-Dp \\ Sp=709-141.8 \\ Sp=567.2 \end{gathered}[/tex]The sale price is $567.2
