let p = original price. Here's what we know:
1/2 p - 4 = 89 (If we take half the original price, and then subtract 4, we get $89)
Now we need to solve for p. Start by adding 4 to both sides:
1/2 p - 4 + 4 = 89 + 4
1/2 p = 93
Multiply by 2:
1/2 p * 2 = 93 * 2
p = 93 * 2
Solve that for your final answer.
