Answer:
$1.94.
Step-by-step explanation:
Initial box of figurine = 32
Price increase = 2.32
Current worth = $144.24
Let x be the initial cost of boxes of figurine.
(32 * x) * 2.32 = $144.24.
74.24x = $144.24.
x = $144.24/74.24
= $1.94.
Therefore the original cost of the box of figurine is $1.94.
Answer:
$1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
32(x + 2.32) = 144.24
use distributive property:
32x + 74.24 = 144.24
next, use inverse operation to get the coeficcient alone:
32x + 74.24 - 74.24 = 144.24 - 74.24
32x = 144.24 - 74.24
32x = 40
now to get x alone, do the inverse operation again:
32x/32 = 40/32
x = 1.25
