Answer:
R=7/20
Step-by-step explanation:
Of means multiply
is means equals
1/2 • x = -.25
Rewritten
.5•x=-.25
Inverse operations to isolate the variable.
x = -.25/.5
x = -.5
For this case we have that, the cost of 5 dolls is $130. If we want to know the number of dolls that can be bought with $390 we make a rule of three:
5 dolls -----------> $130
x --------------------> $390
Where the variable "x" represents the number of dolls that can be purchased with $390.
Thus, you can buy 15 dolls.
Answer:
15 dolls
