D. 40$

Step-by-step explanation:

The sale price is the difference between original price and discount.

The discount can be calculated by taking 20% of original price.

Discount=20% of original price = (20/100) * 50=0.2*50=10

Discount=$10

Sale price=Original price - Discount price

Sale price=50-10=40

Sale price=$40

The sale price of a jacket is $40.
