Jade buys a blouse and a skirt for 34 of their original price. She pays a total of $31.50 for the two items. If the original pri

ce of the blouse is $18, what is the original price of the skirt?

34(18s) = 31.50
0.75(s + 31.50) = 18
34(18 + s) = 31.50

Answer:

`Part A:

D. 3/4(18 + s) = 31.50

Part B:

$36

Step-by-step explanation:

I think 34 is 3/4, is that right?

here, s is the cost of the skirt

Part A: The answer would be:

3/4(18) + 3/4(s) = 31.5 =

3/4(18 + s) = 31.5

Part B: 3/4(18) + 3/4(s) = 31.5

4.5 + 3/4s = 31.5

Subtract 4.5 from both sides:

3/4s = 27, 27 is the cost of the skirt now, but we need the original price.

multiply both sides by 4/3:

s = 36

they both go into themselves once
