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.
