(01.05 MC)Thomas bought 4 shirts from a store. The price of each shirt was the same. After he bought the shirts, his account balance showed a change of −$89.08. What would have been the change to Thomas's account balance had he only bought 1 shirt from the store?
$22.27
−$22.27
$22.45
−$22.45

okay so would assume that he didn't have a previous balance at the store, so 89.08 is the price of the 4 shirts he just bought. so now u should divide

his balance would charge -22.27
OpenStudy (will.h):
The whole question don't make any sense But one thing i know for sure the price of the shirts is 4x and x can never be negative
OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):
Ye it's B
OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):
Ty anyways
OpenStudy (will.h):
They said his account showed a change of 89.08 dollars that means he paid that amoount at the shop
and if he bought 4 shirts then 89.09/4 = 22.27!
