Number of people < (should be smaller than or equal to but I don't have that button on my keyboard) (100-7) / 15.50
103/15.50 = 6.64516...
You can't have .645 of a person, so you must round down. Therefore, she can bring 6 people including herself.
No, I just took the test,
The answer would be

Answer: the original price of the skirt is $24
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the original price of the skirt. if the original price of the blouse is 18, then the original price of the skirt and blouse is (x + 18)
Jade buys a blouse and a skirt for 3/4of their original price. It means that the amount at which she bought the skirt and blouse is
0.75(x + 18)
Applying the distributive property, it becomes
0.75x + 13.5
Jade pays a total of 31.50 for the two items. It means that
0.75x + 13.5 = 31.5
0.75x = 31.5 - 13.5
0.75x = 18
x = 18/0.75
x = $24

Answer:
![-26,-24,-22](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-26%2C-24%2C-22)
Step-by-step explanation:
<em><u>The correct question is</u></em>
The sum of three consecutive even integers is -72. what are the three numbers
Let
x ----> the first consecutive even integer
x+2 ----> the second consecutive even integer
x+4 ----> the third consecutive even integer
we know that
![x+(x+2)+(x+4)=-72](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%2B%28x%2B2%29%2B%28x%2B4%29%3D-72)
solve for x
![3x+6=-72\\3x=-78\\x=-26](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=3x%2B6%3D-72%5C%5C3x%3D-78%5C%5Cx%3D-26)
so
![x+2=-26+2=-24](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%2B2%3D-26%2B2%3D-24)
![x+4=-26+4=-22](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%2B4%3D-26%2B4%3D-22)
therefore
the numbers are
![-26,-24,-22](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-26%2C-24%2C-22)
