The closing price of a share of stock in Company XYZ is $17.29 on Thursday. If the change from the closing price on Wednesday is -$0.40, find the closing price on Wednesday. A. $16.89 B. $17.89 C. $17.69 D. $16.79

@VinnyT Let the closing price on wednesday is x, We are given the change in price from wednesday to thursday is $-0.40 so \[x-40=17.29\] Do you understand this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah.

OpenStudy (ash2326):

Can you find x?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No..:S

OpenStudy (ash2326):

Sorry I made a mistake earlier, this is the correct equation. \[x-0.4=17.29\] Can you add 0.4 to both the sides?
