Answer: add 22 with $18.55  divide 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

As per linear equation, the equation to find the price of the shoe is: (11 + 0.5x) = 18.55.

The price of the shoe before discount is $15.1.

What is a linear equation?

"A linear equation is an equation in which the highest power of the variable is always 1. It is also known as a one-degree equation. The standard form of a linear equation in one variable is of the form Ax + B = 0. Here, 'x' is a variable, 'A' is a coefficient and 'B' is constant."

Given, the price of the shirt before the discount is $22.

Let, the price of the shirt before the discount is $x.

Now, total price of the shirt and shoe $(22 + x).

Now, the total discount on shirt and shoe is

= $(22 + x) × 50%

= $(22 + x) × 0.5

= $(11 + 0.5x)

Now, (11 + 0.5x) = 18.55

⇒ 0.5x = 18.55 - 11

⇒ x = 7.55 ÷ 0.5

⇒ x = 15.10

Therefore, the price of the shoe before discount is $15.1.
