Question

The phone case you want to buy is marked down 30% and you have a 25% off coupon. You pay 42 dollars. Can this equatio be used to find the original cost of the phone case?If so what is the original price of the item. Explain.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Original price = x

75% of 70% of x = $42

0.75*0.70x =$42

x = $42/(0.75*0.70) =$42/0.525 = $80
