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.

Ellen drove 357.9 miles. Her car gets about 21 miles per gallon. Which is the best estimate of how many gallons of gas Ellen use
olga55 [171]
The best thing to do is to divide the amount she has driven (357.9) by the miles (21)
As you're looking for an estimate, you have to round them.
357.9 rounds to 360
21 rounds to 20
Therefore, you've got to divide them
360/20= 18
Therefore, Ellen has driven approximately 18 miles
Hope this helps :)

Write the point-slope form of the equation of the horizontal line that passes through the point (2, 1). Pease show how!
mote1985 [20]
Check the picture below.

using a second for it, since it's a horizontal line, then say hmmm we'll use the y-intercept, or (0, 1), so the equation of a line that passes through (2,1) and (0,1)

\bf \begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\
%   (a,b)
&({{ 2}}\quad ,&{{ 1}})\quad 
%   (c,d)
&({{ 0}}\quad ,&{{ 1}})
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope  = m
slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{{{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\implies \cfrac{1-1}{0-2}\implies \cfrac{0}{-2}
\\\\\\
% point-slope intercept
\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y-{{ y_1}}={{ m}}(x-{{ x_1}})}\implies y-1=0(x-2)
