10x 0.15 + 10 = 11.75

2018-11-29 02:42:28 UTC  

err 11.5

2018-11-29 02:42:59 UTC  

-15% = 9.77

2018-11-29 02:44:01 UTC  

I want it so I can plug in amount I will receive so i can get the selling price which is my price plus 15% in the final result

2018-11-29 02:44:06 UTC  

x/0.85

2018-11-29 02:44:23 UTC  

like 15% gets deducted from final price

2018-11-29 02:45:02 UTC  

so I want to make it so that I just write down the amount i want from said sale which will be x% minus selling price

2018-11-29 02:45:17 UTC  

but I think I'm going about it wrong because it requires initial price in the first place

2018-11-29 02:45:21 UTC  

Do what I just said, brainlet.

2018-11-29 02:45:38 UTC  

what is x?

2018-11-29 02:45:45 UTC  

A variable.

2018-11-29 02:45:58 UTC  

10 in your case.

2018-11-29 02:46:05 UTC  

Meeting of the fucking minds in here

2018-11-29 02:46:23 UTC  

x is desired amount

2018-11-29 02:46:51 UTC  

I feel like this is simple but my fevered brain is making me go in circles

2018-11-29 02:46:55 UTC  

👏

2018-11-29 02:47:47 UTC  

how did you arrive at the .85 amount

2018-11-29 02:47:54 UTC  

I was thinking I should put in .15

2018-11-29 02:48:42 UTC  

100% is 1. You subtract 0.15 (15%).

2018-11-29 02:52:00 UTC  

feeling super durmb right now

2018-11-29 02:52:15 UTC  

You should.

2018-11-29 02:53:04 UTC  

x(money i want ) = y(final sale price) - z (commision which is (a) percent of (y))

2018-11-29 02:53:17 UTC  

can you solve this line by line

2018-11-29 02:54:37 UTC  

I'm glad I'm not a math teacher.

2018-11-29 02:57:53 UTC  

Kek

2018-11-29 02:58:00 UTC  

Stop doing drugs

2018-11-29 02:59:09 UTC  

How does one attain and maintain such stupidity? <:thvnk:332928260004642827>

2018-11-29 02:59:11 UTC  

I got a fever can't think striaght

2018-11-29 03:02:11 UTC  
2018-11-29 03:05:58 UTC  

x=y-(yxz)

2018-11-29 03:06:03 UTC  

where x is desired amount

2018-11-29 03:06:10 UTC  

y is final amount

2018-11-29 03:06:22 UTC  

and z is percentage that will be taken from y amount

2018-11-29 03:25:34 UTC  

I got it

2018-11-29 03:25:44 UTC  

x= amount i want after tax cut

2018-11-29 03:25:49 UTC  

y is the final amount including tax cut

2018-11-29 03:25:54 UTC  

i =tax cut

2018-11-29 03:26:04 UTC  

x=y-y(i)

2018-11-29 03:26:18 UTC  

x=y(1-i)

2018-11-29 03:26:28 UTC  

y=x/(1-i)
