Answer:

$165

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to find out what the remaining 30% of $550 is. To do that, we can multiply 550 by 30%.

First, change 30% into a decimal:

30% ->  [tex]\frac{30}{100}[/tex] -> [tex]0.3[/tex]

Now, lets multiply:

[tex]x=550(0.3)[/tex]

[tex]x=165[/tex]

Your answer is $165.
