Let the original price of the sweater be = X
Then the amount Jerome pays for the sweater after 20% discount = X - (20X/100)
= X - 0.2X
= 0.8X
Now on this price the 8.25% tax needs to be added to get to the amount actually paid by Jerome.
So,
0.8X + [(8.25/100) * (0.8X) = 25.1
This is the equation from which the actual price of the sweater bought by Jerome can be determined.
So
0.8X + [(.0825) * ( 0.8X) = 25.1
0.8X + 0.066X = 25.1
0.866X = 25.1
X = 25.1/0.866
= 28.98
So the actual price of the sweater is $28.98.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: A, because it is a 30, 60, 90 triangle. To get the 34 they had to times the number by 2 so you divide that by 2 and it gives you 17 then you have the square root of 3* 17, that doesn’t mathematically work so it stays as 17*the square root of 3
Answer:
x=-8
(-8,-7)
Step-by-step explanation:
–9x + 9y = 9
–9x + 9(-7) = 9 (y=-7)
-9x-63=9
Both side +63
-9x=63+9
-9x=72
Both side divide -9
x=-8
y=-7
(-8,-7)
