-8x - 2y = -4

When y = -5x
-8x - 2(-5x) = -4
- 8x + 10x = -4
2x = -4
x = -4/2 = -2

-8x - 2y = -4 ; y = -5x
-8x - 2(-5x) = -4
-8x + 10x = -4
2x = -4
2x/2 = -4/2
x = -4/2 = -2/1 = -2
x = -2

The original sale price of an item at markdowns is $110.95. You have an additional 20% off coupon for markdowns for purchases to

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

$22.19

Step-by-step explanation:

20% off the original price = $110.95 - (20% x $110.95)

20% x $110.95 = $22.19

$110.95 - $22.19 = $88.76

difference = $110.95 - $88.76 = $22.19

Since you have the 42-deg angle and the length of the opposite side, 31, you can use the Law of Sines.

$\dfrac{a}{\sin A} = \dfrac{b}{\sin B} = \dfrac{c}{\sin C}$

We will use the law of sines first to find x.

Once we know x, we can find the angle opposite y.

Then we can find y.

$\dfrac{31}{\sin 42^\circ} = \dfrac{37}{\sin x}$

$\sin x = \dfrac{37\sin 42^\circ}{31}$

$\sin x = 0.798639$

$x = \sin^{-1} 0.798639 = 53^\circ$

Let z = the angle opposite y.

z + 42 + 53 = 180

z = 85

$\dfrac{31}{\sin 42^\circ} = \dfrac{y}{\sin 85^\circ}$

$y = \dfrac{31 \sin 85^\circ}{\sin 42^\circ}$

$y = 46.2$
