Let the price be p. Then 1.10p = $8.25. Solving for p, p = $750 (answer)

The equation can be framed as follows:

Before tax cost *(1+tax rate) = Final cost

Given tax rate = 10% = 0.1

Final cost = $825

Before tax cost *(1+0.1) = 825

Before tax cost * 1.1 = 825

Before tax cost = 825/1.1

Before tax cost = $750

Price of the couch before taxes = $750

guapka [62]

Let x = the amount that Katie spent
Katie: x dollars
Stephanie: x-3 dollars
Brandy: 2x dollars

Together they spent $56, so the sum of these numbers should equal $56
x + (x-3) + 2x = 56
x + x + 2x - 3 = 56
4x = 59
x= 14.75
Katie spent $14.75

Find the value of x in the triangle shown below.

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

62°

Step-by-step explanation:

In an isosceles triangle, angle opposite to equal sides are equal.

So according to angle sum property :

x + x + 56 = 180

2x + 56 = 180

x = 180 - 56 /2

x = 62°
