Answer:

The expression that can be used is 0.80x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> original price of an item

Remember that

[tex]100\%-20\%=80\%[/tex]

That means---> the sale price is 80% of the original price

To find out the sale price, determine the 80% of the original price

[tex]80\%=80/100=0.80[/tex] ----> percentage in decimal form

Multiply the original price by the percentage in decimal form to obtain the sale price

so

[tex]0.80x[/tex]
