Answer: the store paid $18.3 for the sweater
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount that the store paid for the sweater.
A store marks up the price of a sweater by $7.35. This means that the new or current price of the sweater at the store would be
7.35 + x
The total cost of the sweater is 25.65. Therefore, an equation to represent the problem would be
7.35 + x = 25.65
Subtracting 7.35 from the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation, it becomes
7.35 + x - 7.35 = 25.65 - 7.35
x = $18.3
The number could have been 8.699999999 so yeah there
