If you mutiply 75/100 * 8 you get 6
Answer: 24.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Last year her stock in company A was worth $4600. If her Stock in company A has decreased by 25% since last year in stock, then the amount by which it decreased is
25/100 × 4600 = $1150
The present worth is
4600 - 1150 = $3450
Also, her stock in company B was worth $1000. If her Stock in company B has decreased by 22% since last year in stock, then the amount by which it decreased is
22/100 × 1000 = $220
The present worth is
1000 - 220 = $780
The total worth of both stocks last year was
4600 + 1000 = $5600
The total worth of both stocks this year was
3450 + 780 = $4230
The amount by which it decreased is
5600 - 4230 = 1370
the total percentage decrease in the investor stock account is
1370/5600 × 100 = 24.5%
Answer:
As an equation, (we'll use x as the variable), that word problem is 3x+7=31.
To solve we'd subtract 7 from both sides to isolate 3x, which gives us 3x=24. Now, to isolate x(unknown number) we would divide both sides by 3. When you divide both sides by 3, you'd get x=8.
Answer:
m=-4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Rise/run
it goes up -4 units and over 3
-4/3
R/ r+ 15 = 3/8
Cross multiply: top of one side multiplied by bottom of other side:
R x 8 = 3 x r+ 15
Simplify:
8r = 3r + 45
Subtract 3r from both sides:
5r = 45
Divide both sides by 5:
R = 9
