Let x represent the orig. price. Then (100-15)% of x produces the sale price. It is 0.85x = $27, so that

x = $31.76.

Check: What is 15% off $31.76? $4.76.

What is $31.76 = $4.76? $27. This is correct.

Answer:

5) 2(4 - n) = -3n

2 × 4 - 2 × n = -3n

8 - 2n = -3n

-2n + 3n = -8

1n = -8

n = -8/1

n = -8

6) 5 - 3(2 + 2w) = -7

5 - 3 × 2 + -3 × 2w = -7

5 - 6 - 6w = -7

-1 - 6w = -7

-6w = -7 + 1

-6w = -6

w = -6/-6

w = 1

7) 5(2r + 3) - 5 = 0

5 × 2r + 5 × 3 - 5 = 0

10r + 15 - 5 = 0

10r + 10 = 0

10r = -10

r = -10/10

r = -1

8) 3 - 5(2d - 3) = 4

3 - 5 × 2d - 5 × -3 = 4

3 - 10d + 15 = 4

-10d + 15 + 3 = 4

-10d + 18 = 4

-10d = 4 - 18

-10d = -14

d = -14/-10

d = 7/5

hope this helps you!!
