To calculate the price of the jacket after a 20% discount, follow these steps:
1. Calculate the discount amount:
\[
\text{Discount} = \text{Regular Price} \times \left(\frac{\text{Discount Percentage}}{100}\right) = 50 \times 0.20 = 10
\]
2. Subtract the discount from the regular price:
\[
\text{Price After Discount} = \text{Regular Price} - \text{Discount} = 50 - 10 = 40
\]
Thus, the price of the jacket after the discount is **$40**.
