Answer: $450
Step-by-step explanation:
We can form an equation representing the problem. The question is essentially asking 60% of what is equal to $270. If we define that what as a variable 'x', we get the following:
Multiply both sides by 100:
Divide both sides by 60 to solve for the value of 'x':
Answer is 450 bucks
We can check this answer by taking 60% of $450. In principal, this should return the discount of $270.
Yup, it checks out
Input is the same as the x-term and output is the same as the y-term.
For example, take a look at the image provided with thee table.
Looking at the first box of our table, notice that if we subtract 5 from 1, we get -4 and if we subtract 5 from 2 we get -3 and if we subtract 5 from 3, we get -2. Notice that in each case, we're subtracting 5 from the input to get the output.
I attached a table so you can practice if you'd like to. All you have to do is subtract 5 from each input and you will end up with the output. The first few are done for you. I also provided an answer key in the next image so you can check your work.
The last one might be a little trick. In the input, we have n which is a variable that represents any number. If we want to find the nth term, we simply subtract 5. So we have n - 5.
First image is practice if you'd like and the second is the key.
If you don't want to do it, no worries.

n is -32
