A.$28.71
B.$5.24
C233.00
D. None of the above

Answer 1

Answer: D. None of the above

Steps:
x = 35.95 - (35.95 * 50%)
x = 35.95 - (35.95 * 0.50)
x = 35.95 - 17.975
x = 17.975

Check:
17.975 = 35.95 - (35.95 * 50%)
17.975 = 35.95 - (35.95 * 0.50)
17.975 = 35.95 - 17.975
17.975 = 17.975 ✅

Answer 2

D: None of the above because 35.95/2=17.975.

Explanation:

Divide 35.95 by 2.
