$163.54
d.
$165.35

$167.02

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount spent when there's discount

= $150.32

Discount = 10%

Since there's a discount of 10%, it means that (100% - 10%) = 90% of the value of the good was paid.

Let the original value be x.

Therefore, 90% of x = $150.32

90% × x = $150.32

0.9 × x = $150.32

0.9x = $150.32

x = $150.32/0.9

x = $167.02

The value is $167.02
