Fernando has been saving money to buy an e-book reader. A store just marked down the price of its readers by 40%. Each reader comes with an mail-in rebate for 25$. If the reader used to cost 150$! What will Fernando's Final price be after the markdown and rebate?

1. How much money will Fernando save because of the 40% markdown? Show your work.

150 x 40% = 60

2. The total amount off includes the markdown and rebate. What is the total amount off?

3. What will the final price of the reader be? Show your work.

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?

here's a poem i finished a while ago. i hope you like it and that it inspires you.
