Abusiness bought 12 identical computers on sale. the original price, p, of each computer was reduced by $36.
altogether, the business paid $3888 for the computers.
which linear equation correctly models the situation?
(p—36) = 3888
12
12 (p + 36) = 3888
12 (p – 36) = 3888
pi
(p+36) = 3888
12
check answer
ne
what was the original price, p. of each computer?

The correct answer is C. 12 (p -36) = 3,888, and the original price, before the discount, of each computer was US$ 360.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of computers purchased = 12

Price of the computers = Original price (p) - US$ 36

Total paid by the business for the 12 computers = US$ 3,888

Linear equation that correctly models the case:

Number of computers * Price of the computers = Total paid

Replacing with the known values:

12 * (p - 36) = 3,888

1. According to the alternative answers provided, the linear equation that correctly represent the business purchase is C. 12 (p -36) = 3,888

Now let's solve the equation to find out the original price.

12 * (p - 36) = 3,888

(p - 36) = 3,888/12 (Dividing by 12 at both sides of the equation)

p - 36 = 324

p = 324 + 36

p = 360

2. The original price, before the discount, of each computer was US$ 360.

a² + b²= c²

24² + 7² = c²

c= 25

360/29
