The equation that represents the original price of the shirt is:
2p = 7.98
Solving for p, we divide both sides of the equation by 2:
p = 7.98 / 2
p = 3.99
Therefore, the original price of the shirt was $3.99.
A store is having its year-end sale. A shirt now costs $7.98, which is half of its original price. Complete and solve the working equation that represents the original price, p
, of the shirt.
