Create an Algebraic Equation for this math problem.
Jamie picks out a blouse to purchase. It is on sale for 25% off plus she has a $10 off coupon. She pays $23 for the blouse. Determine the original price
A lot of times it is easier to create an Algebraic equation for a situation after you consider how you would solve the problem (using any method). The way I like to think about problems like this is you start with the "mystery price" of the blouse and then apply the sale and the coupon and it should equal $23. Try this and see if that helps!
