100-25=75.
25% off means 75% of original price.

Set original price as x.
0.75x=36
x=48

The original price was $48.

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

$\displaystyle \frac{a}{-7} - 7 = 5$

Step 2: Solve for a

Addition Property of Equality: $\displaystyle \frac{a}{-7} - 7 + 7 = 5 + 7$
[Simplify] Add: $\displaystyle \frac{a}{-7}= 12$
Multiplication Property of Equality: $\displaystyle -7 \cdot \frac{a}{-7} = 12 \cdot -7$
[Simplify] Multiply: $\displaystyle a = -84$

Step 3: Check

Plug in a into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

Substitute in a: $\displaystyle \frac{-84}{-7} - 7 = 5$
[Frac] Divide: $\displaystyle 12 - 7 = 5$
Subtract: $\displaystyle 5 = 5$

Here we see that 5 does indeed equal 5.

∴ a = -84 is the solution to the equation.

If in drawing your vector you are required to use a scale such that 25 grams represent 1 cm, and if your resultant vector measur

Aleks04 [339]

If we multiply the ratio

... 25 g : 1 cm

by 5, we get

... 125 g : 5 cm

The number on the left is 75 g more than 50 g.
