Respuesta :

Let us assumed that each of the swimsuit is marked to sell at $40.99, and each suit was marked down $17.90 (given).

With the given formula below, we solve for the reduced price

[tex]M=S-N[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} M=\text{ \$17.90(given)} \\ S=\text{ \$40.99(given)} \\ N=\text{reduced price} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Substitute the value of M and S in the given formula to solve for N as shown below:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 17.90=40.99-N \\ 17.90+N=40.99-N+N \\ 17.90+N=40.99 \\ 17.90+N-17.90=40.99-17.90 \\ N=23.09 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the reduce price is $23.09
