$x$ = initial price
$y$ = new price

$y$ = 0.75 $x$

You subtract the % that the sale is and take it away from 100%. You get 75% then take the original price and divide it by .75

Answer:

Solution of equation ( q ) = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have given an equation that is 3 ( q - 7 ) = 27 and we have asked to solve this equation that means to find the value of  q .

Solution : -

$\quad \: \longmapsto \: 3(q - 7) = 27$

Step 1 : Solving parenthesis :

$\quad \: \longmapsto \:3q - 21 = 27$

Step 2 : Adding 21 on both sides :

$\quad \: \longmapsto \:3q - \cancel{ 21} + \cancel{21} = 27 + 21$

On further calculations we get :

$\quad \: \longmapsto \:3q = 48$

Step 3 : Dividing by 3 from both sides :

$\quad \: \longmapsto \: \frac{ \cancel{3}q}{ \cancel{3}} = \cancel {\frac{48}{3} }$

On further calculations we get :

$\quad \: \longmapsto \: \pink{\boxed{\frak{q = 16}}}$

Therefore, solution of equation ( q ) is 16 .

Verifying : -

Now we are very our answer by substituting value of q in the given equation . So ,

3 ( q - 7 ) = 27

3 ( 16 - 7 ) = 27

3 ( 9 ) = 27

27 = 27

L.H.S = R.H.S

Hence, Verified.

Therefore, our solution is correct .
