Answer 1

The original price for one lunch special is $19.

Explanation

The original price for one lunch special is  'p'  dollar.

He wins a coupon for $4 off for each of five days. That means , he needs to pay $(p-4)$ dollar each day.

So, the total amount needed to pay for 5 days $= 5(p-4)$ dollar

Given that, he pays $75 for his 5 lunch specials. So the equation will be.....

$5(p-4)= 75\\ \\ 5p-20=75\\ \\ 5p= 75+20\\ \\ 5p= 95\\ \\ p=\frac{95}{5}=19$

So, the original price for one lunch special is $19.
