A person sells a TV set at 35% loss. Had he sold it for $135 more, his loss would have been reduced by 15%. How much did he buy the TV?

Let the price of the TV = X
Let the amount he sold the TV = Y

A person sells a TV set at 35% loss

Y = (100% - 35%) of X
Y = (1 - 0.35) of X
Y = 0.65X (eqn 1)

Had he sold it for $135 more, his loss would have been reduced by 15%.

Y + 135 = ((100% - 35%) + 15%) of X
Y + 135 = (0.65 + 0.15) of X
Y + 135 = 0.8X (eqn 2)

How much did he buy the TV?

In short, what is X (A.K.A: find X 😂)

Put (eqn 1) into (eqn 2)
0.65X + 135 = 0.8X
135 = 0.8X - 0.65X
135 = 0.15X
X = 135 ÷ 0.15
X = 900

Answer: $900

What is Secret Chats of Telegram

Secret Chats are one of the service’s additional security features; it allows messages to be sent with client-to-client encryption. This setup means that, unlike regular messages, these secret messages can only be accessed from the device’s that initiated and accepted the chat. Additionally, Telegram notes that secret chats leave no trace on the company’s services and offer a self-destruct timer.
