as y varies directly with x, the following equation can be established.
y = a * x
from the condition given by the question, we can know that
7.5 = a * 3
a = 7.5 / 3 = 2.5
thus, we can infer that the equation is
y = 2.5 * x
Answer:
2400
Step-by-step explanation:
2244 is the final price. it includes the VAT based on the actual sale price. and that is then actually 15% lower than the originally marked price.
so, let's calculate backwards :
2244 = 100% sale price + 10% VAT = 110%
1% = 2244 / 110 = 20.40
100% (actual sale price) = 20.40×100 = 2040
now, because of the 15% discount, these 2040 are only 85% of the originally marked price.
2040 = 85%
1% = 2040 / 85 = 24.00
100% (the original marked price) = 24×100 = 2400
