I JUST REALLY MEED HELP I GIVE BRAINLIEST
A department store sale advertises 1/2 off Al clearance items. Marie bought a clearance item and used a coupon for $5 off. She pays a total of $11. What was the original price of the clearance item?

Answer 1

Answer:

32 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the original price is x

Create an equation:

$\frac{1}{2}x -5 = 11$

Add 5 on both sides

$\frac{1}{2}x = 16$

x = 32

The answer is 32 dollars

Hope this helps :)
