Answer:

the store owner pays $ 42 for the pair of jeans

Step-by-step explanation:

we will make an equation that represents the cost of the item and the cost of sale

we will call x at the cost of the item we don't know the price

x * 125/100 = 52.50

Now that we have the equation we just have to clear the x

x = 52.50 / (125/100)

and finally we solve

x = 52.50 / 1.25

x = 42

the store owner pays $ 42 for the pair of jeans

Masja [62]

Based on the given graph, the time when the softball reaches its maximum height is about 1.8 seconds.

<h3>When is the softball at it highest?</h3>

The softball is at its maximum height at the point where the curve begins to go back down.

This means the maximum height is 50 feet.

The time when this softball reaches this height is between 1 and 2 seconds at 0.8.

The time the softball reaches its maximum height is therefore 1.8 seconds.
