Answer:
Lucy paid the least amount of money and she paid $770
Step-by-step explanation:
The way to find dylans is
1000-80= $920
920 x .15= $782
for lucy you do:
1000 x .15= $150
150 + 80= $230
1000-230= $770
<span>This is the value of a variable for an entire population. It usually cannot be found directly: the population mean. We can approx. the population mean, or specify an interval in which it is likely to lie, but we generally cannot find the value of the pop mean.</span>
The second step is wrong. What should've been done is to find greatest common factor (gcf) of 1/6 and -2. This is because you cannont add together a number with a variable to a number without a variable. So get the variable by itself by subtracting 1/6 from both sides.
1/5x + 1/6 = -2
___— 1/6_— 1/6
____________
Turn -2 into a fraction and find the gcf of -2 and 6:
1/5x + 1/6 = -2
___— 1/6_— 1/6
____________
1/5x = -2/1 — 1/6 ——> 1/5x = -12/6 — 1/6
1/5x = -13/6
Then divide each side by 1/5 to get the variable by itself; remeber: when dividing a fraction by a fraction, you multiply by the reciprocal.
5/1 • 1/5x = -13/6 • 5/1
x = 65/6
Then, simplify
65/6} 10.83 or 10 83/100
