\n" ); document.write( "Let \"x\" equal the marked price of ramen.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "The \"18\"% discount is equal to \"x+-+0.18x\", or \"0.82x\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "The service charge, when applied to the discounted ramen price, is \"0.1%280.82x%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The GST, when applied to the discounted ramen price, is \"0.07%280.82x%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "Since she paid all 3 of these, and it totaled to \"10.13\", you can add them together to get this equation:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"0.82x+%2B+0.1%280.82x%29+%2B+0.07%280.82x%29+=+10.13\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "Combine the terms to get:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+0.9594x+=+10.13\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Divide by \"0.9594\" to get: \"x+=+10.55\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "So, the original price of the ramen was \"10.55\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
