-3(x + 5) = -9
-3x + -15 = -9
-3x - 15 = -9
-3x - 15 + 15 = -9 + 15 (we added 15 to both sides of the equation because now, the 15 on the left side cancels out).
-3x = 6
-3x/-3 = 6/-3
X = -2
So, in conclusion, X is equal to -2.

A toy cost 0.85p in January.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Mark down in January = 15%

Let,

Price in December = p

Mark down in January = 15% of price in December

Mark down in January = $\frac{15}{100}*p$

Mark down in January = 0.15p

Price of toy in January = Price in December - Mark down

Price of toy in January = p - 0.15p = 0.85p

A toy cost 0.85p in January.
