let x = orginal price of the shorts
$21 = x(100%-20%) * 1.05
$21 = x(80%) * 1.05
$21 = 0.8x * 1.05
Subtract 1.05 from both sides
$19.95 = 0.8x
Divide 0.8 from both sides
$24.9375 = x
So the orginal price of the shorts are about $24.94
Answer:
X= -12 +6√10
X= 6.973
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of the box= (36-2x)(24-2x)x
Volume of the box
=( 864 -96x -4x²)x
But 864 -96x -4x²
=216 - 24x-x²
Solving for x quadratically
X= (24+12√10)/-2
X= -12 -6√10
X= -30.97
Or
X= (24-12√10)/-2
X= -12 +6√10
X= 6.973
X will definitely be a positive number
So X= -12 +6√10
X= 6.973
