Answer:

$7.6 ;

No, you will not be able to buy 3 more CDs

$9.5

$28.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Cost of 4 CDs = $30.40

Cost per CD is equal

Sale price = 80% of original price

Price p per CD:

Cost of 4 CDs / number of CDs

$30.40 / 4

= $7.6

2)

No, you will not be able to buy 3 more CDs

If x = original price

80% of x = 7.6

0.8x = 7.6

x = 7.6 / 0.8

x = $9.5

$9.5 * 3 =$28. 5

Hence, $25 can't buy 3 CDs the next day (28.5 > $25)
