Answer: price of the watch before the discount is £23.5825
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the original price of the watch.
Jason went shopping he bought a watch and a pair of trainers for a total price of £53.55. This price includes 15% loyalty discount. The value of the discount is
15/100 × 53.55 = 8.0325
This means that the original cost of both items is
53.55 + 8.0325 = 61.5825
Before the discounts, the trainers were priced at £38. Therefore,
38 + x = 61.5825
x = 61.5825 - 38
x = 23.5825
$10,000 X 0.05 = $500/year
500 X 4 years = $2,000 after 4 years
