Today each cookie cost $0.75 less than the normal price. Right now if you buy 7 of them it will cost you $2.80. Write an equation to determine the normal price of each cookie.

Respuesta :

x-0.75=0.40 will determine the normal price of each cookie.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 7 cookies = $2.80

Cost of one cookie = [tex]\frac{2.80}{7}\\[/tex]

Cost of one cookie = $0.40

Let,

x be the normal price of cookie

As the price today is $0.75 less than normal price, therefore,

[tex]x-0.75=0.40[/tex]

x-0.75=0.40 will determine the normal price of each cookie.
