Answer:
$2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the original price of Doritos at Walmart = $x and at County Market = $y.
It is given that the original prices at both the shops is same i.e. x = y.
Also, there is a discount of $0.50 at Walmart and Jon bought 4 bags that day.
This gives us that cost of the bags = 4(x-0.50)
Again, there is a discount of $1 at County market and Jon bought 6 bags that day.
This gives us that cost of the bags = 6(y-1)
As, the new prices is same. Thus, 4(x-0.50) = 6(y-1)
As x = y. This gives,
4(x-0.50) = 6(x-1)
i.e. 4x - 2 = 6x - 6
i.e. 4x - 6x = - 6 +2
i.e. - 2x = - 4
i.e. x = 2.
As x = y, therefore y = 2.
Hence, the original price of bag of Doritos is $2.
