Question

best buy has a store brand tv for $700. this is $250 more than 1/4 of the cost of a deluxe model that they also carry. what is the price of the deluxe model that best buy has in their store?

Answer 1

$812.50

Explanation:

Make an equation:

700 = 250 + 1/4x

• 700 is the store brand version
• 250 + 1/4x is the price of the deluxe t.v.

Solve:

700 = 250 + 1/4x

-250 -250

------------------------

450 = 1/4x

------ ------

1/4 1/4

112.5 = x

Add:

700 + 112.5 = 812.5

So, the deluxe version is $812.50

Hope this helped.

Answer 2

1800 Dollars

Explanation:

If a 700 dollar tv is 250 dollars more than a quarter the cost of another tv, that means that 700 - 250 = 450, which multiplied by 4 equals 1800 which would be the price of the tv
