Answer:

The sales price of the skirt was $14.3.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, you know that the total for the three items is $32.35 which is:

x+y+z=32.35

x is a skirt

y is a pair of shoes

z is a pair of socks

Also, you know that the pair of socks costs $3.75, so you can replace the value of z and subtract this from the total amount to have the price of the skirt plus the pair of shoes:

x+y+3.75=32.35

x+y=32.35-3.75

x+y=28.6

Now, as the original prices of the skirt and shoes were the same and you know that the sum of the two items is equal to $28.6, you can divide this by 2:

$28.6/2=$14.3

According to this, the answer is that the sales price of the skirt was $14.3.

Answer:

  y +8 = -4(x -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

You recognize that the given equation is in slope-intercept form:

  y = mx + b

with m = 1/4 and b = 5.

A perpendicular line will have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of this value of m, so the desired slope is ...

  -1/m = -1/(1/4) = -4

The point-slope form of the equation for a line is ...

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . for slope m through point (h, k)

Using m=-4 and (h, k) = (8, -8), the point-slope form of the equation for the line you want is ...

  y +8 = -4(x -8)
