9 dollars represents 90% of the cost. Divide 9 by 0.90 to get the original price, 10 dollars

Answer:

The original price of the gift was $40.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price of the gift be = x

Discount of 10% on the gift and each sister paid $9 means a total of 4\times9=36 dollars

We can write this information mathematically like :

x-0.10x=36

Solving for x now;

0.90x=36

x = $40

So, the original price of the gift was $40.

-100 = -t/5 - 4<br><br>Find t please! (also explain)​
Damm [24]

Answer:

t = 480

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have equations with variables, we always want to isolate the variable, so lets get rid of 4 first.

Add 4 to both sides :

-96 = -t/5

Multiply both sides by the denominator :

-480 = -t

Divide both sides by negative 1 :

t = 480
