It depends upon the numbers...If both are negative numbers, then you change the value of the second number and add them. For example:
(-3) - (-6) = (-3) + 6 = 3.

(-7) - (-4) = (-7) + 4  = -3

So, it depends on the second numbers sign.

I hope this answer helped you :)

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

$119.32

Step-by-step explanation:

Leiff decides to buy his video game, with a price tag of $128, at this site

he will get the 15% discount when he checks out.

100-15= 85%

Discounted price=85% of 128 is 0.85 \cdot 128=108.8

Leiff pays 5.3% sales tax on the discounted price

5.3% is 0.053

sales tax amount=0.053 times 108.8=5.7664

So we add the sales tax amount and shipping fee

108.8+5.7664+4.75=119.32

So $119.32 is the total amount

3/4 times 18= 13.5
31.5-13.5=18 
It cost 18 dollars for the skirt with a discount.
It cost 13.5 for the blouse as opposed to the original price of 18 dollars.
18(skirt)+13.5(blouse)=31.5
If you set up a proportion to find the original price of the skirt you will get the answer. 
18/x=75/100
75x=18 times 100
75x=1800
75x/75=1800/75
x=24 
The original price of the skirt is 24 dollars.
