Jerry receives a 15% employee discount at
the store where he works, If he pays $151.30
for an item, what was the original price of the
item?

hi

if he pays  15 % less, then. he pays  1- 0,15 = 0,85 of full price.

Let's call  X full price

then. o,85 X. = 151.30

                  X = 151.3. / 0,85

                  X =  178

$178

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the original price is x. If there's a 15% discount on x, we have the expression:

x - 15% * x

We know that the discounted price is $151.30, so set this equal:

x - 15% * x = 151.30

x * ( 1 - 15%) = 151.30

Remember that % just means "out of 100", so 15% = 15/100:

x * (1 - 15/100) = 151.30

x * (1 - 0.15) = 151.30

x * 0.85 = 151.30

x = 151.30 / 0.85 = 178

The original price was thus $178.

(- 1, 0 )

step-by-step explanation:

an x- intercept is where the function crosses the x- axis.

to find the x- intercept/s look for the value of x when f(x) = 0

from the given table there are 3 values of x where f(x) = 0

when x = - 1, x = 2, x = 3

the one that is listed is (- 1, 0 )
