Question

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! ALSO PLEASE ADD A DESEND EXPLANATION!! Find the original price if the price was: $8a after 60% increase.

Answer 1

Answer: $3.2a

Step-by-step explanation: We need to decrease $8a by 60 percent because $8a is the price after a 60% increase. 8 x 6/10 is 48/10 which as a mixed number is 4 8/10 or 4.8. Now, we subtract 4.8 from 8 which yields our answer of 3.2.
