jade buys a blouse and a skirt for 3/4of thier original price jade pays a total of 31.50 for the two items if the original price
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer: the original price of the skirt is $24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the original price of the skirt. if the original price of the blouse is 18, then the original price of the skirt and blouse is (x + 18)

Jade buys a blouse and a skirt for 3/4of their original price. It means that the amount at which she bought the skirt and blouse is

0.75(x + 18)

Applying the distributive property, it becomes

0.75x + 13.5

Jade pays a total of 31.50 for the two items. It means that

0.75x + 13.5 = 31.5

0.75x = 31.5 - 13.5

0.75x = 18

x = 18/0.75

x = $24
