It is stated that the total bill the patient would only
pay would be the $25 plus 20% of the original bill. Therefore this would mean
that:
<span>25 + 0.2 * X = 200 --->
1</span>
<span>25 + 0.2 * X = 800 --->
2</span>
Where X represents the original bill.
Calculating for X in equation 1:
25 + 0.2 * X = 200
0.2 * X = 175
X = 875
Calculating for X in equation 2:
25 + 0.2 * X = 800
0.2 * X = 775
X = 3875
Therefore the original bill ranges from $875 to $3875.
The equality equation would be:
<span>$875 ≥ X ≥ $3875</span>
