Solve the equation

2.5 - 2.5x = 7

$25 becasue a 10 increase would make it from 80 to 50

step-by-step explanation:

the answer to this question depends on certain assumptions.   if the 6-pint jar starts out empty, and the 3-pint jar full, pouring the 3 pints into the 6-pint jar results in a half-full 6-pint jar.   if we refill the 3-pint jar and then pour its contents into the half-full 6-pint jar, then the 6-pint jar will be full.
