Step-by-step explanation:

Directions: Write two markup or markdown expressions for each problem below. Then substitute the given value for the variable and evaluate the expression.

The Discounted Price is found out after deducting the discount from the original price.

Let 100 be the sale price then the discount is 59 and the discounted price would be 100- 59= $41

Sale Price = $ s

Discount = 59% of $ s

Discounted Price = s- (100-59)/100*( $s) = 1s- 0.59s   = 0.41 s

Expanded Expression                             Simplified Expression

 1s- 0.59s                                                                      0.41 s

Find the sale price of the Smelly Cat litter, when the regular price was $6 per bag.

Sale Price = $ 6

Discount = 59% of $ 6

Discount= (59/100) $6= $ 3.54

Discounted Price= Sale Price - Discount= $6 - $ 3.54= $ 2.46

the answer is 99.
