Well 85% of 25 is 21.25. So the closest ones would be 20 or 22. Well let's check out the difference's. 21.25-20= 1.25.....22-21.25=.75. well clearly .75 is smaller than 1.25 so your answer would be 22. 85% of 25 is closest to 22.
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1. 12x - 15 - 12x = 7x + 20
step 2. 12x - 12x - 15 = 7x + 20 (grouping of terms)
step 3. -15 = 7x + 20 (adding like terms)
step 4. -35 = 7x (subtract 20 from both sides)
step 5. this step is incorrect.
step 6. -5 = x ( divide both sides by 7)
step 7. x = -5 (put the variable first).

We are looking at points in the form (x, y).
Let x = pounds of red grapes
Let y = pounds of green grapes
Audrey has less than 5 pounds of grapes. Here is where I think you made a typo. The question should indicate if Audrey has 5 pounds less of red grapes or green grapes.
Go back and check your original problem and then come back.
