A triangle is usually 180 degrees so decided that by 3
12(3-2x) = 84
do distributive multiplication:
12(3) + 12(-2x) = 84
36 - 24x = 84
Deduct 36 to both sides
36 - 36 - 24x = 84 - 36
-24x = 48
divide -24 to both sides
-24x / -24 = 48/-24
x = -2
To check:
12(3-2x) = 84
12(3-2(-2) = 84
12(3+4) = 84
12(7) = 84
84 = 84
Answer:
$12.49
Step-by-step explanation:
The price right now = 0.8 * the original price
9.99 = 0.8*x
x=12.4875
x≈12.49
Sorry, I thought your problem meant that it was 20% the original price, not 20% off.
