The first step is to find the CHANGE. This is done by subtracting the two values and taking the absolute value. Next step is to find the ratio of the change to the original and multiplying by 100% to make it a percentage.
So;
a) change = Ι60 - 25Ι = 35.
ratio of change to original = 35:25,
multiplying by 100% will give 35/25 × 100% = 140%.
Hence it is a 140% INCREASE.
b) change = | 30 - 66 | = 36
the ratio is 36:66
multiplying by 100% = 36/66 × 100% = 0.545454... ×100% ≈ 54.5%
Hence it is a 54.5% DECREASE.

For any x in Real numbers, [x] is the greatest possible integer smaller than x, or equal to x if x is an integer.
According to this,
<span>[2.4] is the greatest integer , smaller than or equal to (so non greater) 2.4. This number is 2
similarly, </span>[-2.4] is the greatest integer , smaller than or equal to (so non greater) -2.4. This number is -3.
Answer:
A) <span>Because 2 is the greatest integer not greater than 2.4 and –3 is the greatest integer not greater than –2.4. </span>
Answer: 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug in x to the expression.

When there is the same base of exponents is being multiplied the exponents add together and the base stays the same.
So this simplifies to,
.
This then solves to 25.
John is correct because between the time and distance, you divide by 9 to get the distance or multiply by 9 to get the time.
Answer:
x=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
-4x – 6(3x + 4) = -4 + 8(1 - x)
Distribute
-4x – 18x -24 = -4 + 8 -8x
Combine like terms
-22x -24 = 4-8x
Add 22x to each side
-22x+22x -24 = 4-8x+22x
-24 =4+14x
Subtract 4 from each side
-24-4 = 4+14x-4
-28 = 14x
Divide each side by 14
-28/14 =14/14
-2 =x
