1. Mina bought a plane ticket to New York City and used a coupon for 10% off the ticket price. The

total cost of her ticket, with the discount, was $253.10. Which equation could she use to find the

price of the ticket without the discount?

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]x-0.10x=253.10[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the price of the ticket without the discount.

The cost of the ticket after discount would be x minus 10% of x.

10% of x: [tex]\frac{10}{100}*x=0.10x[/tex]

We have been given that the total cost of ticket with 10% discount is $253.10. We can represent the given information in an equation as:

[tex]x-0.10x=253.10[/tex]

Therefore, Mina could use the equation [tex]x-0.10x=253.10[/tex] to find the price of ticket without the discount.
