5. David Read's the problem: Ally bought a T-shirt and a pair of shorts on sale which
reduced prices by 1/4. The total savings on the 2
garments was $10.25. Find the original price for the
pair of shorts.

David says that the original price of the shorts was $41.
Does his answer seem reasonable? Defend your
answer by writing and solving an equation that
represents the situation.

No, David's answer does not seem reasonable.

Let x= original purchase amount

25x = $10.25, so solve for x by dividing both sides by .25, and you get x = $41.

If the shirt was $18, the shorts must have been $41-$18 = $23 NOT $41.

Step-by-step explanation:

i got 142 as my answer

step-by-step explanation:

median is the value separating the higher half of a data sample, a population or probablity distribution from the lower half.

step-by-step explanation:

say you have 3,8,7,3,1,9,8 order them from lowest to highest

if orderd it would be 1,3,3,7,8,8,9 now you take away from the lowest and the highest until you end up in the middle.

so you would remove the 1 and 9 leaving you with 5 digits remaining

when you've reached the middle that would be your answer so in this case the answer is 7

if there were two numbers left say 7 and 5 you'd and them together so 12 then divide by 2 witch would equal 6 so the answer would be 6

good luck on that project hoped i you at all
