Answer:

$787.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price of the bicycle be $x.

If the original price was first discounted by 50% and then discounted an additional 10%, the total percentage discount will be 60%.

Using the formula

S = p(1-r) where

S is the sales price of the bicycle

p is the original price of the bicycle

r is the percentage discount

Given sales price = $315

Total percentage discount = 60% = 0.6

Substituting this in the formula above we have:

$315 = p(1-0.6)

$315 = 0.4p

P = $315/0.4

P = $787.5

The original price of the bicycle = $787.5

This means that the bicycle was discounted in total by 60%, so $315 is 40% of the original price to get 40% to 100% youd multiply it by 2.5 so so the same to the price 315 x 2.5= 787.5
