car problem

[scrollwolf]

a car sells for $13,000, which is at a 20% discount. What is the un-discounted price of the car?

Hope that helps

New user ForeverDarkrai, it "helps" if you use your own example worked out,

but preferably give the student a chance by just doing a couple of beginning

line steps/hints and/or explanation, not the whole solution for the student seeking "help"

without the student showing attempts and/or questions/feedback about the problem first.

It also helps to reply to students who are asking for help now, rather than from months or years ago.

Spammers don't read the forum (although a few conduct research on the site, before spamming; those few may read).

ForeverDarkrai's commercial tutoring site never got off the ground, anyhoo. So, bye bye (but not reported).

Solve 13,000=.20x , solve for x, to find the value of the car.

1) The original post is more than two years old.

2) Your answer is completely wrong. $13000 was at a 20% discount, not 20% of the price.
