    120.00

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x be the original price

    The price is 10% off, or we pay 90% of the original price

    .9 x

    Then we have to pay 7% sales tax

    .9x * 7%

    .9x *.07

    .063x is the tax

    Add this to the. 9x we have to pay for the jacket

    .9x +.063x =.963x

    This is the cost of the jacket

    .963x = 115.56

    Divide each side by. 963

    .963x/.963 = 115.56/.963

    x = 120.00

    The cost of the jacket before discount and tax is 120.00
