Let the original price = x
then 76.50 = 0.90x
x = 76.50 / 0.90 = 85

This being algebra, your best bet would be to represent the "original price" by a letter, such as n.

If there's a 10% discount on this item, the price you'd pay would be (1-0.10)n, and this price is $76.50

Solve (1-0.10)n = $76.50 for n.

Answer:

2) (-∞, 17]

Step-by-step explanation:

The leading coefficient of the function is negative, so the parabola opens downward. The vertex will be a maximum, the upper end of the range. The lower end of the range will be -∞.

The vertex of the function lies on the axis of symmetry. The maximum can be found by evaluating the function at x=-4.

y = -(-4)² -8(-4) +1 = -16 +32 +1 = 17

The range of the function is (-∞, 17].
