Expression that represents the sale price of the wedding dress is [tex]s = 0.65w[/tex]
Solution:
Given that, the dress is on sale for 35 % off the regular price
Let the regular price of dress be "w"
To find: Expression that represents the sale price of the wedding dress
Let "s" be the sale price of wedding dress
Sale price = Regular price - discount price
Discount price is given as:
Discount price = 35 % of regular price
Discount price = 35 % of w
[tex]\rightarrow 35 \% \times w\\\\\rightarrow \frac{35}{100} \times w\\\\\rightarrow 0.35w[/tex]
Thus discount price = 0.35w
Expression for the sale price of the wedding dress:
Sale price = Regular price - discount price
s = w - 0.35w
s = 0.65w
Thus expression that represents the sale price of the wedding dress is [tex]s = 0.65w[/tex]
