Answer:

[tex]T(p) = \frac{1}{4}p[/tex]

The new price is $6.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The new price of the toy after the discount (T) is given by the original price (p) subtracted by the discounted amount (3/4 of p):

[tex]T(p) = p-\frac{3}{4}p \\T(p) = (1-\frac{3}{4})p\\T(p) = \frac{1}{4}p[/tex]

If the original price was $26.99, the new price is:

[tex]T= \frac{1}{4}*\$26.99\\T=\$6.75[/tex]
