Question A shirt is on sale for 15 percent off the original price of x dollars. If a customer has a coupon for 5 dollars off the sale price, which of the following represents the price, in dollars, the customer will pay. excluding tax, for the shirt?

0.15x -5

O 0.85x -5

0.85(x - 5)

5-0.85x

.85x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

If you say .15x suppose x is 1

.15*1= .15

Is 15% off 1 = .15 no its .85 thats why in these types of problems we do 100%-15%=85% and then .85*x

i can't solve unless i know what the line is
