You're welcome.
all cd's were 15% off at. the original price was $12. what was the sale price?
To solve this problem, you need to find the sale price, which is the price after applying a 20% discount to the original price. Here's how you can calculate it:
1. Start by finding the 20% discount. To do this, multiply the original price by the discount rate, which is 20% in decimal form (0.20).
Discount = Original Price × Discount Rate
= $225 × 0.20
= $45
2. Subtract the discount from the original price to find the sale price.
Sale Price = Original Price - Discount
= $225 - $45
= $180
Therefore, the sale price of the entertainment center is $180.
