Brandon went to the store and spent $2.50 on pencils. he spent half of what he had left on a notebook and paper. when he got home he had $5.00 left. how much money did brandon have before going to the store?

The Brandon did have $12.5 before going to store

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Brandon did have money $x before going to the store.

He Spent $2.50 on pencils.

Amount left after buying a pencil = x - 2.50

Next, he spent half of the amount left in his pocket.

i.e He spent (x - 2.50)/2 on notebook and paper.

So the total amount he spent= 2.50 + (x -2.50)/2

Amount left when he got home =$ 5.00

That means, x - Total amount spent = 5

=> x - (2.50 + (x -2.50)/2 ) = 5

=> x - 2.50 -x/2 + 2.50/2 = 5

=> x/2 - 2.50/2 = 5

=> x/2 = 5 + 2.50/2

=> x/2 = 6.25

=>x = $12.5

So the Brandon did have $12.5 before going to store

median is the value separating the higher half of a data sample, a population or probablity distribution from the lower half.

step-by-step explanation:

say you have 3,8,7,3,1,9,8 order them from lowest to highest

if orderd it would be 1,3,3,7,8,8,9 now you take away from the lowest and the highest until you end up in the middle.

so you would remove the 1 and 9 leaving you with 5 digits remaining

when you've reached the middle that would be your answer so in this case the answer is 7

if there were two numbers left say 7 and 5 you'd and them together so 12 then divide by 2 witch would equal 6 so the answer would be 6

good luck on that project hoped i you at all

y=x+9
