The cable provider's "triple pay" package offers a land line, internet service, and cable tv for one fixed price. if you already have their cell phone service they offer an additional 12% off the price of the triple pay package. if the discounted price of the triple pay is $132, what is the price of the package without the discount? pls will mark !

let x be the price before the discount

If you get 12% off, then you only pay the remaining 88% (since 88%+12% = 100%). This means if you take 88% of the original price (x), then you get the final price (132)

In terms of an equation, we have,

88% of (original price) = final price

(88/100)*(x) = 132

0.88*x = 132

0.88*x/0.88 = 132/0.88 <--- divided both sides by 0.88

x = 150

The price without the discount is $150

answer: what do you mean
