Step-by-step explanation:
-- The graph looks like a line that passes through the origin,
and slopes up to the right at a 45-degree angle.
-- Point #1 on the line:
. . . . . Pick any number.
. . . . . Write it down twice.
. . . . . Call the first one 'x'. Call the second one 'y'.
-- Point #2 on the line:
. . . . . Pick any other number.
. . . . . Write it down twice.
. . . . . Call the first one 'x'. Call the second one 'y'.

Rinse and repeat, as many times as you like,
until the novelty wears off and you lose interest.
It was marked down 1/4 of the original price to $128. That means $128 is equal to 3/4 of the original price. So the original price would be 4/3 of $128. I get $170.67 (rounded to the nearest cent).
Part A:
Price before tax: $49.99
Discount: 50% of $49.99 = 50% * $49.99 = 0.50 * $49.99 = $25.00
Discounted price: $49.99 - $25.00 = $24.99
Tax on discounted price: 8% of $24.99 = 8% * $24.99 = 0.08 * $24.99 = $2.00
Part B:
Total price: $24.99 + $2.00 = $26.99
What are the rest of the options?
