Question 1138001

Let x = original price<br>

(x-25) = price minus instant rebate<br>
(1-0.25)(x-25) = price after 25% discount = 775

0.75(x-25) = 775
x-25 = 775/0.75 
x-25 = 1033.33
x = 1033.33+25 
x = 1058.33<br>

Ans:  original price was $1058.33<br>

Check:  1058.33-25 = 1033.33
        (1-0.25)(1033.33) = 0.75(1033.33) = $775.00  (rounded to nearest penny)
