Problem K. 859. (May 2025)
K. 859. I have already paid \(\displaystyle 25,000\) forints in advance for a language course, but I still have to pay as much as I would have to pay if the advance had been half of what I still have to pay now. How much does the language course cost in total?

Megoldás. Legyen a tanfolyam teljes ára \(\displaystyle x\) Ft, ekkor még fizetendő \(\displaystyle (x-25000)\) Ft. Ennek, tehát a még fizetendő összeg fele:
\(\displaystyle \frac{x-25000}{2}=0,5x-12500.\)
A feladat feltételei alapján a még fizetendő felét kivonva a teljes árból, megkapjuk a jelenleg még fizetendő összeget, vagyis:
\(\displaystyle x-(0,5x-12500)=x-25000,\)
\(\displaystyle 0,5x+12500=x-25000,\)
\(\displaystyle 0,5x=37500,\)
amiből \(\displaystyle x=75000,\) azaz a nyelvtanfolyam teljes ára \(\displaystyle 75000\) forint, amely kielégíti a feladat feltételeit.
