Answer:
Initial value is 4,000
Growth is -480
Step-by-step explanation:
Initial value is the value that you started with: hence 4000.
Growth would be how much it grows, it grows downward because it is 12% down. Next you need to find what 13% of 4000 is 100%-13%=88% .88*4000=480 or 13% of 4000.
Hope this helps

Answer:
1.67
Step-by-step explanation:
after the decimal we have the
tens
hundreths
thousanths
(usually math doesn't ask you to go farther than the thousanths place)
because 15/9 is 1.66666, you will go to the hundreths place and round that six. Six is one more than five so it gets rounded up. That changes the decimal to 1.67. You do not change it to 1.7, because it asked you to round to the nearest hundred not the nearest tens
You can change the denominators so they are alike.

Not sure how there can be two possible answers unless you're mentioning the decimal form:
.775

Answer: there are 8 quarters in the jar
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of nickels that is inside the jar.
The total number of coins inside the jar is 20.
Probability is expressed as
Number of possible or favorable outcomes/total number of outcomes.
The probability of selecting a nickel is 0.6. This is expressed as
0.6 = x/20
Cross multiplying, it becomes
x = 20 × 0.6
x = 12
Since there are 12 nickels inside the jar, then the number of quarters would be
20 - 12 = 8
