Fernando has been saving money to buy an e-book reader. A store has just marked down the price of its readers by 40%. Each reader comes in with a mail-in rebate for $25. The original price of the e-book reader was $150. The total amount off includes the markdown and the rebate. What is the total amount off? Show your work.

$75

Step-by-step explanation:

Remove $25 from $150. (125)

Calculate 40% of 125. (50)

Remove that 40%. (75)

So...

150 - 25 = 125 - 50 = 75

step-by-step explanation:

always plug in x. in this case, x equals 4.

i'm going to first solve 4(2+3x)

1) 4(2+3(4)) use pemdas to solve.

i'm going to multiply whats in the parenthesis first, so 3 times 4=12.

2)4 (2+12) i'm then going to multiply 4 by both numbers in the parenthesis (because multiplying comes before adding)

4 times 2= 8.   4 times 12= 48

4) (8+48)= 56 (answer)

i'm then going to solve 8+12x and plug in 4 for x.

1) 8 +12(4)

multiplying comes before adding, so i'm gonna multiply 12 and 4.

12 times 4= 48.

2) 8+48=56

both equal the same!
