Which model represents the cost of the trip if the trip cost is discounted 26%?
PLZ i need help
I think I said .74
To represent the cost of the trip after a 26% discount, you can use the formula:
Discounted cost = Original cost - (Discount rate * Original cost)
where the discount rate is represented as a decimal (e.g., 26% = 0.26).
Assuming the original cost of the trip is represented by "C", the formula can be written as:
Discounted cost = C - (0.26 * C)
This can be simplified as:
Discounted cost = C * (1 - 0.26)
Simplifying further:
Discounted cost = C * 0.74
So, the model that represents the cost of the trip after a 26% discount is given by multiplying the original cost by 0.74.
