Jade buys a blouse and a skirt for 34 of their original price. She pays a total of $31.50 for the two items. If the original price of the blouse is $18, what is the original price of the skirt?

Part A

Which equation represents the situation?

0.75s = 31.50

0.75(s + 31.50) = 18
34(18 + s) = 31.50

Part B
