Two stores sell the same television for the same original price. Store A advertises that the television is on sale for 30% off the original price. Store B advertises that it is reducing the television’s price by $250. When Allison compares the sale prices of the television in both stores, she concludes that the sale prices are equal.
Let p represent the television’s original price.
Which equation models this situation?
A. 0.7p=p−250
B. 0.7(p−250)=p
C. 0.3p = p + 250
D. 0.3=p−250
