Maria bought a blouse on sale for 30% off. The sale price was $28.76. What was the original price? Write an equation to model the situation and solve it. Use variable p for the original price. Round to the nearest hundredth.

The equation is sale price=p and the original price is $41.09.

                              .70

Step-by-step explanation:

sale price= (1-.30)p      

sale price=.70p

.70              .70

sale price=p                  

.70

28.76=p

.70

$41.09=p

3< x< 5

step-by-step explanation:

|x - 4| < 1

there are two solutions, one positive and one negative.   remember to flip the inequality when taking the negative solution

x-4 < 1       x-4 > -1

add 4 to each side

x-4+4 < 1+4       x-4+4 > -1+4

x< 5                 x> 3

3< x< 5
