Answer:

The answer is C.

Explanation:

Everything that Dominic was doing was correct up until step number 4. He added 1.5 and 0.75y. He shouldn't have done that because those numbers do not have like terms. He should have combined 1.5 and -0.96 which would give him 0.54. Leaving us with the actual answer being 0.54 + 0.75y.
