Hometown Cable has the 'Triple Play' package. It offers a land line. Internet service, and cable TV for one fixed price. If you already subscribe to their cell phone service, they offer and additional 12% off the price of the 'Triple Play' package. If the DISCOUNTED price of the 'Triple Play' package is $132, what is the price of the package WITHOUT the discount? (Hint: What % of the original price is the discounted price?)

the price of the package without the discount is $150

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the price of the package without the discount is shown below:

Let us assume the price without discount be x

So after discount it would be x - 0.12x = 0.88x

Now the equation would be

0.88x = $132

x = $132 ÷ 0.88

= $150

hence, the price of the package without the discount is $150

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

And, the same is to be considered

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

5(x + -6) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

5(-6 + x) = 2(x + 3)

(-6 * 5 + x * 5) = 2(x + 3)

(-30 + 5x) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

-30 + 5x = 2(3 + x)

-30 + 5x = (3 * 2 + x * 2)

-30 + 5x = (6 + 2x)

solving

-30 + 5x = 6 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 5x + -2x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 5x + -2x = 3x

-30 + 3x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-30 + 3x = 6 + 0

-30 + 3x = 6

add '30' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 30 + 3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: -30 + 30 = 0

0 + 3x = 6 + 30

3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: 6 + 30 = 36

3x = 36

divide each side by '3'.

x = 12

simplifying

x = 12

this should .
