Sure! Let's solve this problem step-by-step:
1. Understand the problem: The original price of the dishwasher is \[tex]$679, and it is on sale for 35% off. We need to find out the amount we would pay after applying the discount.
2. Convert the discount percentage to a decimal:
- 35% as a decimal is \( \frac{35}{100} = 0.35 \).
3. Calculate the discount amount:
- Multiply the original price by the discount percentage:
\[
679 \times 0.35 = 237.65
\]
So, the discount amount is \$[/tex]237.65.
4. Subtract the discount amount from the original price to get the sale price:
- Subtract the discount from the original price:
[tex]\[
679 - 237.65 = 441.35
\][/tex]
Therefore, the final price you would pay for the dishwasher after the discount is \[tex]$441.35.
5. Choose the correct option:
- The correct answer is c. \$[/tex]441.35
So, you would pay \$441.35 for the dishwasher after the 35% discount.
