Answer: 0.7p = p-250

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation using the information given:

For store A , it says that the television is on sale for 30% off the original price.So, in decimal form the percentage is 0.3 (30/100 =0.3), if we subtract 0.3 to 1 we obtain the percentage of the original price .

Store A : 0.7 p

For store B, it advertises that it is reducing the television’s price by $250.So:

Store B : p -250

Where p is the television's original price.

To find the original price:

0.7p = p-250
