Let the original cost of the item be x
\(0.9x + $.90 = x\) -> \(0.1x = $0.9\) -> \(x = $9\)
Therefore, the original price of the item is $9(Option C)

when we add 90 cents , cost price would become equal to original price which is equal to 10%.
90 cents is equal to 10% of the original price, so original price is 90 cents * 10 = 9$
