The discount price will be 0.8X dollars.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Price of an item = X dollars
Discount = 20%
Amount of discount = 20% of Price of item
Amount of discount = [tex]\frac{20}{100}*X=0.2X[/tex]
Price of item after discount = Price of item - Amount of discount
Price of item after discount = X-0.2X = 0.8X dollars
The discount price will be 0.8X dollars.
