it is 48

Step-by-step explanation:

the reason it is 48 is because the length is 6 feet and it is 8 wide so 8x6=48

and it would be 480.00$

y = 0.77(x)

step-by-step explanation:

the jacket retains this value after 23% cut or retains 77% of original value. plug original 87 jacket price for x and the remaining value should be y.

-8/2y-8=5/y+4-7y+8/y^2-16

we move all terms to the left:

-8/2y-8-(5/y+4-7y+8/y^2-16)=0

we can not solve this equation
