Assuming There is ONLY ONE CORRECT ANSWER,
The probability of her guessing the answer without ruling out the choices is 1/5.
if 3 choices are ruled out, then 1 out of the remaining two is right, which gives the probability 1/2
now, 1/5 = 20% , while 1/2 = 50%.
Therefore her probability of getting the correct answer improves by 30% [ not much in a REAL test though :P ]
The answer for the question is x=-7
The answer is 670.
this is because 96 plus 287 is 383.
so he sold 287 on the 1st day, and 383 on the second day.
383 plus 287 equals 670.
