Answer:
60%
Step-by-step explanation:
40 / 25 - 1 = 60%
I think it's possible 10?
Set up an equation to solve.
$8.50x (since it is the rate of change) + $12 (flat fee) = total money earned (or y). In this case, we have the total, amount, and are looking for x. Plug $139.50 into the equation.
$8.50x + $12 = $139.50
Now, solve for x.
$8.50x + $12-12 = $139.50-12 > <em>$8.50x = $127.5</em>
$8.50/8.50x = $127.5/8.50 > <em>x = 15</em>

The answer is -17
The negative 7 and positive 7 add up to 0. They are opposites which cancel out. Think of it like being 7 dollars in debt (negative 7) and that debt is fully canceled out by the positive amount of money (positive 7). Put another way, the negative 7 means you go down 7 while the positive 7 means you go up 7.
After the first two terms cancel to 0, the -17 is the only thing left. Adding 0 to any number keeps that number the same.
Has to be 128, that’s 80 times 1.6 but I’m lazy and 80 times 2 would be 160... so it’s 128
