I believe you ment to say sale price but I hope this helps you understand your question. The original price was 1200, and if it were 5/6 on sale (this method works for all questions like this) you would do 1200 ÷ 6 = 200 x 5 = $1000.
So first of all we can't start by changing them both into improper fractions
So it would be:
5/2 divided by 13/8
From there you would do 5/2 * 8/13 which could convert to
5/1 * 4/13 which would be 20/13
y = -1/2x + 5 should be your equation because it is 5 ft above sea level and its eroding, or going down, 1 ft per 20 years. So every year, the sand dune erodes 1/20 ft more.
Hope this helps!
