Question 773451: Hello tutor, may you please help me on the following problem?
The sound Connection prices TDK 100-min blank audiotapes by raising the wholesale price 50% and adding 25 cents. What must a tape's wholesale price be if the tape is to sell for $1.99?

Let the wholesale price be "x":
Equation:
1.5x+25 = 199
1.5x = 174
x = 116 cents = $1.16
