Answer:

Kelly will still have more money than Luis

Kelly will have 25% more

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount of money Kelly has and y, Luis

Luis has $40

and Kelly has 50% more money than Luis

Therefore, Kelly has;

50% of $40 + $40

= 0.5*40 + 40

= $60

If Luis gets $8 more, Luis will have;

$8 + $40 = $48

since Luis' $48 is less than Kelly's $60, Kelly will still have more money than Luis

Difference in their money = $60 - $48 = $12

Therefore, Kelly will have;

12/48 * 100 more than Luis

= 25% more

What dose this equal (8.5)x(-3)=a
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

-25.5

8x3=24

but we still have the .5 so we multiply that by 3 which equals to 1.5 add that to 24 which makes 25.5 and because only one of the numbers was negative it turns 25.5 into -25.5.
