Answer:

120.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price

The price is 10% off, or we pay 90% of the original price

.9 x

Then we have to pay 7% sales tax

.9x * 7%

.9x * .07

.063x is the tax

Add this to the .9x we have to pay for the jacket

.9x + .063x = .963x

This is the cost of the jacket

.963x = 115.56

Divide each side by.963

.963x/.963 = 115.56/.963

x =120.00

The cost of the jacket before discount and tax is 120.00
