Answer:
According to my algebra calculator: -4.35808478
Step-by-step explanation:
I would say -4.
Not 100% sure.
I hope this is right!
The answers are x=1 or x=0 or x= -2
$740.00
85% of x is 629
Translate into algebra. Use a decimal in place of the percent:
.85x = 629
Divide by .85
x = 740
This answer makes sense because the regular price should be a little higher than the sale price. If they are paying 85% they're only getting 15% off.
Check:
740×.85 = 629
