For this case, the first thing we should do is define a variable.
We have then:
- x: regular price of each piece.
The equation modeling the problem is given by:
\(14 (x-0.15) = 3.22\)
From here, we clear the value of x.
We have then:
\(x-0.15 = \frac {3.22} {14}\\x-0.15 = 0.23\\x = 0.23 0.15\\x = 0.38\$\)
Answer:
The regular price of each piece of candy is:
\(x = 0.38\$\)
