To find the original price before the increase, divide the new price by 1 + the percent of increase.

198 / 1.20 = 165

The original price was $165

Answer:

y=x is the correct answer

Explanation:

A linear equation is an equation between two variables that gives a straight line when plotted on a graph.

Why the other ones are incorrect:

y=√x gives a radical function graph

y=x^3 gives a cubic graph

y=x^2 gives a parabola

Solve for x.<br> 4(2x - 1) - 7 = 4 - x + 6
Akimi4 [234]
<span>The answer is that x = 21/9.

Start with the original:                  4(2x - 1) - 7 = 4 - x + 6
Now distribute the 4:</span>                   <span> 8x - 4 - 7 = 4 - x + 6.
Now combine the like terms.       8x - 11 = -x + 10.
Now add x to both sides.             9x - 11 = 10.
Now add 11 to both sides.            9x = 21.
And divide by 9 on both side.      x = 21/9. </span>
