Answer:
`Part A:
D. 3/4(18 + s) = 31.50
Part B:
$36
Step-by-step explanation:
I think 34 is 3/4, is that right?
here, s is the cost of the skirt
Part A: The answer would be:
3/4(18) + 3/4(s) = 31.5 =
3/4(18 + s) = 31.5
Part B: 3/4(18) + 3/4(s) = 31.5
4.5 + 3/4s = 31.5
Subtract 4.5 from both sides:
3/4s = 27, 27 is the cost of the skirt now, but we need the original price.
multiply both sides by 4/3:
s = 36
5 1/6 * (-2/5) = __
turn 5 1/6 into a mixed fraction
31/6 * (-2/5) = __
multiply
31 * -2 = -62
6 * 5 = 30
so -62/30 or -2 1/15

Answer:
198.4 ounches is the real answer
RS => y - 5 = (8 - 5)/(1 - (-1)) (x - (-1))
y - 5 = 3/2 (x + 1) => slope = 3/2
ST => y - 8 = (-2 - 8)/(7 - 1) (x - 1)
y - 8 = -10/6 (x - 1) = -5/3 (x - 1) => slope = -5/3
TU => y - (-2) = (0 - (-2))/(2 - 7) (x - 7)
y + 2 = 2/5(x - 7) => slope = 2/5
UR => y = 5/(-1 - 2) (x - 2)
y = -5/3 (x - 2) => slope = -5/3
The median is the line joining the midpoints of the non-parallel sides.
Midpoint of RS = ((-1 + 1)/2, (5 + 8)/2) = (0, 13/2)
Midpoint of TU = ((7 + 2)/2, -2/2) = (9/2, -1)
Equation of the line joining (0, 13/2) and (9/2, -1) is given by y - 13/2 = (-1 - 13/2)/(9/2) x
y - 13/2 = (-15/2)/(9/2) x
y - 13/2 = -15/9x
18y - 117 = -30x
30x + 18y = 117
