Answer:

(a)  s = the original price = $28.38 / 0.67 = $42.36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the original price of the snowsuit.  

If $28.38 is a discount of 33% from the original price, then (1.00 - 0.33)s = $28.38, or 0.67s = $28.38.

(a)  s = the original price = $28.38 / 0.67 = $42.36

(b) if taxes are 7% then the sale price is (1.07)($42.36) = $45.32.

Of course, if the tax rate is other than 7%, the total sale price will be different.
