1. **State the problem:**
We have an item with an original price of $i$ dollars, and it is on sale for 25% off. We want to find expressions that correctly represent the sale price.
2. **Formula and explanation:**
The sale price after a discount is given by:
$$\text{Sale Price} = \text{Original Price} - \text{Discount}$$
where the discount is a percentage of the original price.
3. **Calculate the discount:**
25% off means the discount is 25% of $i$, which is:
$$0.25i$$
4. **Calculate the sale price:**
Subtract the discount from the original price:
$$i - 0.25i$$
5. **Simplify the expression:**
$$i - 0.25i = (1 - 0.25)i = 0.75i$$
6. **Check each given expression:**
- $0.025i$: This is 2.5% of $i$, not 25%, so incorrect.
- $0.075i$: This is 7.5% of $i$, not 25%, so incorrect.
- $i - 0.25$: This subtracts a fixed amount 0.25, not 25% of $i$, so incorrect.
- $i - 0.25i$: Correct, this is the original price minus 25% of the original price.
- $i - 0.75i$: This equals $0.25i$, which is the discount, not the sale price, so incorrect.
**Final answer:** The expressions that represent the sale price are:
$$i - 0.25i \quad \text{and} \quad 0.75i$$
