I think not sure but i think the discout is $5.76
X = 9
y = 6
Step by step:
Divide 15 by 2: 15 ÷ 2 = 7.5
Subtract 0.5 from 7.5 (this will later be added back): 7.5 - 0.5 = 7
Subtract 1 from 7 (she wants to buy at least 2 more children books): 7 - 1 = 6
Subtract 6 from 15 (6 being the number of puzzle books, 15 being the total number of items): 15 - 6 = 9 (number of children books)

I'm not for sure if this is what you meant though sorry
According to above figure, the angles (8x - 20)° and (5x + 37)° are pairs of vertical opposite angles, so
the ratio would be as follows
40:16
or
5:2
Worded there are five kids who choose to swim to every 2 kids that choose art.
this could also be written as a fraction 40/16 = 5/2
