A customer asks the clerk for a paintbrush and a bucket of whitewash for a total price of B dollars. If the paintbrush costs 100 cents less than twice the price of a bucket of whitewash, what is the price of half a bucket of whitewash in dollars?  Select
A) (B + 200)/2.  B) (B + 2)/6.  C) (2B + 200)/3.  D) (B + 2)/3.  E) (B - 2)/6.
P = 2w - 200   thus total price in cents as given should be   2w-200 +w = 100B   3w - 200 = 100 B   3w = 100 B+200   3w =b+2 (in dollars)   w/2 = (b+2)/6   (B + 200)/2.ns:(B + 200)/2.
