Use this equation to solve the problem:
x - (x * .25) = 40
This equation is saying the original price times itself by 25% is 40.
x - (x * .25) = 40
Simplify.
x - .25x = 40
.75x = 40
Divide both sides by .75.
x = 53.33
The original price was $53.33
H=2 and h>1, hope that helps
Answer:
a = - 27
Step-by-step explanation:
- 
a - 6 = 12 ( add 6 to both sides )
- a = 18 ( multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction )
- 2a = 54 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
a = - 27
