Answer:

Take the original price and divide it by .75.

Step-by-step explanation:

If he cost today is $25, which is the result of a 75% sale, this represents 1/4 of the original price. 1/4 is equal to .25. Take the original prices, and divide by .25.

One example is if the sneakers are $25 today, what was the original price?

$25/.25 = $100

Proof:

100 - (100 * 75%) = 100 - 75 = $25.00

Hope this helps! Have an Awesome Day!! :-)

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt{1-3x}=x+3\\\\1-3x=x^2+6x+9 \qquad\text{square both sides}\\\\x^2+9x+8=0 \qquad\text{put in standard form}\\\\(x+8)(x+1)=0 \qquad\text{factor}\\\\\left \{ {{x=-8} \atop {x=-1}} \right. \qquad\text{values that make the factors zero}$
