Answer:

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.

A line includes the points (0,0) and (1,5). What is its equation in slope-intercept form
Kipish [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  y = 5x

Step-by-step explanation:

The point (0, 0) tells you the line goes through the origin, so represents a proportional relationship. The slope is simply the ratio of y to x, or 5/1 = 5.

The equation of the line is ...

  y = mx + b . . . . . . line with slope m and y-intercept b

  y = 5x . . . . . . . . . . line with slope 5 and y-intercept of 0 (the origin)
