Let the original price of the sweater be = X
Then the amount Jerome pays for the sweater after 20% discount = X - (20X/100)
= X - 0.2X
= 0.8X
Now on this price the 8.25% tax needs to be added to get to the amount actually paid by Jerome.
So,
0.8X + [(8.25/100) * (0.8X) = 25.1
This is the equation from which the actual price of the sweater bought by Jerome can be determined.
So
0.8X + [(.0825) * ( 0.8X) = 25.1
0.8X + 0.066X = 25.1
0.866X = 25.1
X = 25.1/0.866
= 28.98
So the actual price of the sweater is $28.98.
Answer: (4,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y= 2x - 11
Step-by-step explanation:
(-7 +1 )/ (2-5) = 2
y= 2x +b
-1 = 2* 5 + b
solve for b and you get -11 so the equation of the line is :
y = 2x -11
