Answer:
0.65(79) represents the correct sales price of the shoes (in dollars).
Step-by-step explanation:
As per question, discount offered on cost price = 35% and
Cost Price = 79$
Calculating discount :
Discount on cost price = [tex]35\% \times 79[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{35}{100} \times 79[/tex]
Now, it is know that we have to subtract the discount from cost price to get Sale Price:
[tex]\text{Sale price = Cost price - Discount on cost price}[/tex][tex]\Rightarrow \text{Discounted price = } 79 - \dfrac{35}{100} \times 79\\\text{Taking 79 common}\\\Rightarrow 79(1-0.35)\\\Rightarrow .65(79)[/tex]
Hence 0.65(79) represents the correct sale price of the shoes in dollars.
