Answer:

$28 per pair is not a good estimate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent cost of each pair with tax.

We have been given that a case of 24 pairs of the same kind of sport shoes cost a little more than $800.

The cost of 24 pairs would be [tex]24x[/tex].

[tex]24x>800[/tex]

[tex]\frac{24x}{24}>\frac{800}{24}[/tex]

[tex]x>33.33[/tex]

Since the cost of each pair is greater than $33.33, therefore, $28 is not a good estimate.
