The sale price of an item is $160 after a 20% discount. What was the original price of the item?

The original price of the item is $200.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price be 'x'.

The sale price of an item is $160 after a 20% discount.

i.e. original price - 20% of original price = $160

x-20/100x=160

x-0.2x=160

0.8x=160

x=160/0.8

x=200

Therefore, the original price of the item is $200.

hope this helped :))

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
