Wrong again, missed such an easy question
regular price --- x
discounted price = x - 1.5
She bought 6 at that price for $51
6(x - 1.5) = 51
6x - 9 = 51
6x = 60
x = 10
regular price is $10.00
check:
new price = 8.50
6(8.50) = 51
regular price --- x
discounted price = x - 1.5
She bought 6 at that price for $51
6(x - 1.5) = 51
6x - 9 = 51
6x = 60
x = 10
regular price is $10.00
check:
new price = 8.50
6(8.50) = 51
