Question

At Trendy Tailor Boutique's annual end-of-season sale, every necktie in the

shop gets marked down. Will purchased 7 neckties during the sale. Each
necktie cost $8 less than its full price. He paid a total of $147.
Which equation can you use to find f, the cost of each necktie at full price?

Answer 1

To find the cost of each necktie at full price (f), we can set up the equation 7f = $147 and solve for f. The cost of each necktie at full price is $21.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the cost of each necktie at full price (f), we can use the equation:

f = x + $8

where:

• f is the cost of each necktie at full price
• x is the discounted price of each necktie

In this case, the student purchased 7 neckties and paid a total of $147. So, we can set up another equation:

7f = $147

Solving the equation, we find that each necktie at full price costs $21.
