ANSWER
Eva is correct because 13/2 + 3/2 = 8
There is no mistake. Dakota may have thought that there was a mistake because Eva simplified when she got the answer for 4x which is correct but Dakota may have thought that it was incorrect.
Answer:
<em>start with y</em>
y
<em>add 7</em>
y+7
<em>multiply by 3</em>
3(y+7)
<em>subtract 6</em>
3(y+7)-6
<u>therefore the answer is:</u>
3y + 21 - 6
=
3y + 15 or 3(y+5)
15% of 40 = 6 so I’m guessing it would be 6
