Answer 6

ok so you know that the book price of book on sale is $8.96. The they took 30% off of the regular price making the price $8.96. So...you take 8.96 multiplied by 0.30. you change the 30% to 0.30 because it is 30/100 which gives you 0.30. when you multiply 8.96 by 0.30 you get 2.68. 2.68 is the amount of money taken off the regular price giving you the sale price. now u add 2.68 to 8.96 giving you the regular price making it $11.64. Does that make sense? :)

Answer 10

i would think that it would be x=8.96(.30) making x= the regular price of the book. Does that seem like what the equation would look like when your teacher taught about these types of problems?
