240 decreased 15% find percent and total amount

Mathematics

Doss [256]3 years ago

Hello!

"Decrease" means to take away, so subtraction would be used here.

We must find out 15% of 240 is, and to do that we will convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100, and then multiply the decimal by 240.

^ I know, that's probably a lot to take in at once! :D

15% ÷ 100 = 0.15

240 × 0.15 = 36

Now that we know what 15% is, we must subtract it:

240 - 36 = 204

Final Answer:

204 is the total amount after a 15% decrease.

If the measure of angle 5 is (11 x minus 14) degrees and x = 6, which expression could represent the measure of angle 2? 3 lines
g100num [7]

Answer:

The measure of angle 2 is 52°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the below figure attached with this question.

It is given that

m\angle 5=(11x-14)^{\circ}

and x=6.

From the below figure it is clear that Lines 1,2 and 3 intersect each other at a point and form 6 angles.

It is clear that angle 2 and angle 5 are vertical opposite angles because these angles created by intersection of line 2 and line 3.

If two lines intersect each other then vertical opposite angles are congruent.

m\angle 2=m\angle 5                   (vertical opposite angles)

m\angle 2=(11x-14)^{\circ}

Substitute x=6.

m\angle 2=(11(6)-14)^{\circ}

m\angle 2=(66-14)^{\circ}

m\angle 2=52^{\circ}

Therefore, the measure of angle 2 is 52°.
