Answer:
<u>The original price of the belt was $ 59.32 and Jonathan paid $ 35 for it.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:
Amount Jonathan paid for the belt = $ 35
Discount = 1/3 off the regular price
Coupon = additional 8% = 0.08
2. How much did the Gucci belt cost Jonathan? Show your work or explain how you know.
We assume the question is asking for the original price of the belt, then we make this calculation:
Amount Jonathan paid for the belt = (Original price - Discount) - Coupon
Replacing with the values we know:
Original price = x
35 = (x - 1/3x) - 0.08x
35 = 2/3x - 0.08x
35 = 0.67x - 0.08x
35 = 0.59x
x = 35/0.59
x = 59.32
<u>The original price of the belt was $ 59.32 and Jonathan paid $ 35 for it.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y =74x
Step-by-step explanation:
A proportional relationship is represented by y = kx where x is the independent variable, or input, k is the constant of proportionality, and y is the dependent variable or output.
What do we do to the values in the row for x to get the values in the row of y?
It helps to have x = 1 in this table.
74 = (k)(1)
74 = k
