Answer:

x = -3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Distribute</u>

-1/2(20x - 10) = 8

<em>-10x + 5 = 8</em>

<em />

<u>Step 2:  Subtract 5 from both sides</u>

-10x + 5 - 5 = 8 - 5

<em>-10x = 3</em>

<em />

<u>Step 3:  Divide both sides by -10</u>

-10x / -10 = 3 / -10

<em>x = -3/10</em>

<em />

Answer:  x = -3/10

Answer:-0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply each term in the bracket by -1/2:

-1/2*20X +1/2*10 =8

Simplify the numbers on the left hand side of the equation:

-10x +5 =8

Take the 5 on the right hand side of the equation:

-10x = 8-5

-10x = 3

Divide both sides of the equation by -10:

x= 3/-10= -0.3

The answer is A.

We know that p must be larger than d since a discount means something will be cheaper. Then we know that $2.50 is essentially what p-d should equal to (p-d =2.50)

Then you work through the various tables and find which values will consistently give you 2.50 as the difference between p and d.

For example in table A:

3.00-0.15=2.50
4.00-1.50=2.50
5.00-2.50=2.50
6.00-3.50=2.50
