Arlene buys a phone case and charging cord for 15% off. The original cost of the phone case is $18. Her total discount is $4.20. Write and solve an equation to find the original price of the charging cord, x.

$10

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the price of the phone case is x.

Assume the price of the charging cord is y.

Discounted price for phone case :  15% * x

= 0.15x

Discounted price for charging cord = 0.15y

Expression is therefore:

0.15x + 0.15y = 4.20

0.15 * 18 + 0.15y = 4.20

2.7 + 0.15y = 4.20

0.15y = 4.2 - 2.7

y = 1.5/0.15

y = $10

0.15x + 0.15y = 4.20

0.15 * 18 + 0.15y = 4.20

2.7 + 0.15y = 4.20

0.15y = 4.2 - 2.7

y = 1.5/0.15
