Let

x-----> the price of the tablet before the markdown

Divide by 0.85 both sides

0.85x/0.85=212.50/0.85

x=\$250

Solve 5^2x+1-5^2x=150 with steps
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

x = 2.98

Step-by-step explanation:

5^2x + 1 - 5^2x = 150

25x + 1 + 25x = 150

50x + 1 = 150

50x = 149

x = 2.98

5^2x + 1 - 5^2x = ?

5^2(2.98) + 1 - 5^2(2.98) = ?

25(2.98) + 1 + 25(2.98) = ?

74.5 + 1 + 74.5 = ?

149 + 1 = ?

150 = ?
