C = -b + 12
2b - 3c = 1 1/2

2b -3(-b+12) = 1 1/2
2b + 3b -36 = 1 1/2
5b = 37 1/2
b = 37.5/5
b = 7.5

c + 7.5 = 12
c = 4.5

b = 7.5   c = 4.5

Hope this helps :)

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

The sandals cost before tax $25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the sandals cost before tax $x.

So, after giving an 8% tax the price will be x(1 + \frac{8}{100}) = 1.08x.

If the $15 gift certificate on that after tax price and the final cost of the sandals becomes $12, then

1.08x - 15 = 12

⇒ 1.08x = 27

⇒ x = $25

Hence, the sandals cost before tax $25. (Answer)

murzikaleks [220]

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation: option B would be a better deal than option a because if you go off went golfing and use option a every month and paid $25 It would add up to $85 a month so it’s better to do b and option a would be a better deal if you only went golfing one time a month. I hope this makes sense!
