Answer:

H(x) = 0.85x -2.00

Explanation:

The original price of an item, x dollars, is discounted by 15%.

Let x be the original price of an item

15% =0.15 discount , so discounted amount is 0.15x

Now we subtract discounted amount from original amount

x - 0.15x = 0.85x

A coupon for $2.00 off is applied to the discounted price.

$2.00 is off, so we subtract 2

Function becomes H(x) = 0.85x -2.00
