Step-by-step explanation:
x= -2,
(x - 5) / 2= -6
( (-2) - 5) / 2= -6
(-7) / 2 = -6
-3.5 = - 6
right hand side not equal to left hand side of this equation.so,x= -2 cannot exist for this equation.
x=2,
(x - 5) / 2= -6
(2 - 5) / 2= -6
(-3) / 2= -6
-1.5 = - 6
right hand side not equal to left hand side of this equation.so,x= 2 cannot exist for this equation.
x= -17
(x - 5) / 2= -6
( ( -17) - 5) / 2= -6
(- 22) / 2= -6
-11 = -6
right hand side not equal to left hand side of this equation.so,x= -17 cannot exist for this equation.
x= -7,
(x - 5) / 2= -6
( ( -7) -5) / 2= -6
(-12) / 2= -6
-6= -6
right hand side equal to left hand side of this equation.so,x= -7 exist for this equation.

Hope it helps :)
The answer would be D) 98.8% because if the initial price is $25 per share, then Gavin would have spent $12,500. None of the other answers make sense since if it was just 3% or 82.3%, then it would be too much to equal $150 in return. If you were to put C, then the shares would equal $4.43 each, and If you bought 500 shares, then it would equal $2,212.5 which would be way more than $150. In the other hand, D is correct because then only 1 share would equal $0.3 and that multiplied by 500 equals precisely $150.
Hope this helps!
