En una tienda se anuncia la rebaja de 20% en todos sus artículos . Rafael elije una camisa y al llegar a la caja le informan que
dimulka [17.4K]

Responder:

$ 750

Explicación paso a paso:

Dado que :

Descuento en todos los artículos = 20%

Descuento adicional dado = 15%

Monto final pagado por la camisa = $ 510

Precio de la camiseta sin descuento:

Sea el precio inicial de la camisa = x

Primer descuento obtenido = 20%

Precio pagado después de un descuento adicional del 15%

Primer descuento:

(1 - 0,20) * x = 0,8x

Segundo descuento:

(1 - 0,15) * 0,8x = 510

0,85 * 0,8x = 510

0,68x = 510

x = 510 / 0,68

x = $ 750
