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.

Answer:

347 is the initial spider population

Step-by-step explanation:

y = ab^x

is the formula for exponential growth and decay

a = the initial value

b is the growth or decay rate

b>1  it is the growth rate  (b-1) is the percent

0<b<1 it is the decay rate (1-b) is the percent

y = 347(1.2)^x

347 is the initial spider population

(1.2-1) = .2 = 20 % growth rate

The quantity demanded each month of the walter serkin recording of beethoven's moonlight sonata, manufactured by phonola media,
Olenka [21]
We can get the Profit function P(x) from the Hint. 

the Profit function is: P(x) = xp(x) - C(x) = -0.00041 x2 + 4x - 600
Attention: don't get confuse by the <span>big P of the profit with the small p of the price</span> To calculate the maximum profit, we need to find the derivative of P(x) then set it to 0 then find x: dP(x)/dx = -0.00082 x + 4 = 0 ,   so x = 4/0.00082 = 4,878 copies each month.
