Reid's Hardware discounts all riding lawnmowers 9% to customers paying in cash. If Trey paid $1,390.49 in cash for a riding lawnmower, which of the following equations can be used to determine the original price of the lawnmower?

The original price of the lawnmower is $ 1,528.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Reid's Hardware makes a 9% discount on cash payments, and Trey paid $ 1,390.49 for his lawnmower, to determine the initial cost of the same, the following calculation must be performed:

100 - 9 = 91

91 = 1,390.49

100 = X

(100 x 1,390.49) / 91 = X

139.049 / 91 = X

1.528 = X

Thus, the original price of the lawnmower is $ 1,528.

y= 2x+7

changed to y= 5x +7

as slope is increased from 2 to 5

therefore it would be less steeper

so, option d) is correct
