Question

Jacket is on sale for $10 off. You have a coupon worth $5.80 that brings the cost of the jacket down to $33.19. Write and solve an equation to find the original cost c of the jacket

Answer 1

10- 5.80 = 33.19
c= $42. 89

Answer 2

33.19 = c-10+5.80

33.19 = c-15.80

+15.80 + 15.80

$48.99=c

The cost of the jacket is $48.99
