Answer:  Discount Price = $1104

New Price = $17296

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A used automobile dealership recently reduced the price of a used compact car by 6%, which can be written as 0.06.

The price of the car before discount was 18,400.

Formula for Discount = Discount percentage× Original price

Then , Discount =\(0.06\times18400=\$1104\)

New Price after Discount = Original Price - Discount price

\(=\$18,400-\$1104=\$17296\)

Hence, Discount Price = $1104

New Price = $17296
