Percent decrease = (original number - new number) / original number....* 100
= (45 - 27.5) / 45.....* 100
= 17.5 / 45....* 100
= 0.3888 * 100
= 38.9 % decrease <== thats rounded
Answer:
x=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
4x-16=-20
Get x to one side by subtracting it.
-16=-20-4x
Add the 20 on both sides.
-16+20=-4x
Simplify
4=-4x
4/-4=-4x/-4
-1=x
x=-1

Answer:
28 short-sleeved shirts were sold and 23 long-sleeved shirts were sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this question by a system of equations.
I am going to say that:
x is the number of short-sleeved shirts sold.
y is the number of long-sleeved shirts sold.
A department store sold 51 shirts one day.
This means that 
All short-sleeved shirts cost $14.00 each and all long-sleeved shirts cost $23.00 each. Total receipts for the day were $921.00.
This means that

How many of each kind of shirt were sold?
We have to solve the system of equations.
