Answer 1

To find the price of the kayak at the end of four months, start with the initial price and subtract the total amount reduced over the four months.

1. Initial price of the kayak: $378
2. Monthly price reduction: $15
3. Total reduction over four months: \(15 \times 4 = 60\)

Now, subtract the total reduction from the initial price:

\[ 378 - 60 = 318 \]

The price of the kayak at the end of four months is $318.
