You want to order a new computer. The manufacturer is offering a discount of 12% off the original price of the computer for students. With the discount, you pay $924. What was the original price of the computer?

x - 0.12x = 924 dollars

0.88x = 924

x = 924/0.88

x = $1050 (original price)

problem:

f(x) = - 2/3x + 5; f(5/2)

substitute 5/2 in for x:

f(5/2) = -2/3(5/2) + 5

simplify the right side:

f(5/2) = -5/3 + 5

f(5/2) = 10/3

f(5/2) = 10/3

i hope this !
