Nick Bought groceries for in dollars he had a coupon for $15.50 off he paid $34.63 including tax for the groceries he purchased which equation represents the original cost of groceries leg but what was this amount
Let x be the original cost of groceries.
After the $15.50 off coupon, Nick paid x - 15.50 dollars.
Including tax, Nick paid (x - 15.50) + tax = $34.63.
