Answer:

$675

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = original price of laptop

Discount = 10%

Actual price paid = x - 10% of x

= x - .10x

= .90x

Cost of mouse = $13.99

Total amount paid = $621.49

Total amount paid = actual cost of laptop + Cost of mouse

621.49 = .90x + 13.99

621.49 - 13.99 = .90x

607.5 = .90x

x = 607.5 / .90

= 675

Original cost of the laptop = $675

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

n=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

distribute -7 into (4n+8)

-10n+50=-28n-56-2

combine like terms

-10n+50=-28n-58

add -28n on both sides

-10n+28n+50=-58

combine like terms again

18n+50=-58

subtract 50 on both sides

18n=-108

divide both sides by 18

\frac{18x}{18} =\frac{-108}{18}

x=-6

hope this helps
