Steve purchased a set of golf clubs for his son from Super Golf. The sale price of the set of golf clubs is represented by the expression below. x - 0.45x Which statement best describes 0.45x? It is the amount of the discount. It is the amount of the tax. It is the price per golf club in the set. It is the cost of the set of golf clubs. @esshotwired @Directrix

wht do u mean

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh nevermind lol

OpenStudy (esshotwired):

sorry I had to do something

Directrix (directrix):

Okay, the sale price is given by (x - .45x) where, I think x is the original cost before the "on sale" discount. If that is true, then the discount was 45% off the original price. So, Starr and Horse, what do you think?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B

Directrix (directrix):

Wow, I missed reading this: Which statement best describes 0.45x? I was looking for a description of x - .45x

OpenStudy (esshotwired):

it is either A or B right?

Directrix (directrix):

Starr, how could you say B which is about tax when nothing has been mentioned about tax? 0.o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so its B right

Directrix (directrix):

Horse, be brave. What do you think the answer is.

Directrix (directrix):

>>>ok so its B right NO

OpenStudy (esshotwired):

i think it is A

Directrix (directrix):

Bingo! Horse is correct again. It is the amount of the discount.
