Noah has a coupon for 30% off at his favorite clothing store can you use it to buy a hoodie and a pair of jeans I paid $28 for the jeans after using the coupon what is the regular price

Respuesta :

Given:

Coupon = 30%

Amount paid after using the coupon = $28

Let's find the regular price.

The coupon is a form of voucher that enables someone to get a discount off a product.

This means after a discount of 30%, the new price of the jeans is $28

Thus, to find the regular price, we have:

[tex]28=P(1-\frac{30}{100})[/tex]

Where P represents the regular price.

From the equation above, let's solve for P.

[tex]28=P(1-0.3)[/tex]

[tex]\begin{gathered} 28=P(0.7) \\ \\ 28=0.7P \\ \\ \text{Divide both sides by 0.7:} \\ \frac{28}{0.7}=\frac{0.7P}{0.7} \\ \\ 40=P \\ \\ P=40 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the regular price for the Jeans is $40

ANSWER:

$40
