FInd the original price of the tent. A camping store increases the price of a tent by 25%. A customer then uses a $10 coupon for the tent and pays $152.50.

The original price of the tent was $130,00.

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of the tent will be called "x". The store increased the value by 25%, so the new value is the original one plus 0.25 of the original one, so the new value is 1.25*x. The costummer paid the increased value less the $10 from the coupon, so we have:

paid = 1.25*x - 10

Since he paid $152.5 for the tent we can compute the original value as shown bellow:

152.5 = 1.25*x - 10

1.25*x = 152.5 + 10

1.25*x = 162.5

x = 162.5/1.25 = 130

The original price of the tent was $130,00.

$130

Step-by-step explanation:

If the customer used a $10 coupon and paid $152.50 for the tent, that means that without the coupon, the price would be 10 + 152.50 = $162.50

This price is a result of a 25% increase in the old price, so let's call this price '1.25*X'

Then, we can solve for the value of X, that is the original price:

1.25*X = 162.5

X = 162.5/1.25 = $130

The original price of the tent is $130.
