Answer: A. divided the difference of the two quantities by the sum of the two quantities.
===================================================
Explanation:
The difference of the quantities is 20-15 = 5
The sum of the quantities is 20+15 = 35
Dividing those results leads to 5/35 = 0.142857 which rounds to 0.1429
That converts to 14.29%
This is likely the path Adam took. This path is incorrect. The correct steps are shown below
---------------------
Difference = 20-15 = 5
Divide the difference over the original quantity
5/20 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%
We have a 25% decrease because the new quantity (15) is smaller than the old quantity (20)
----------------------
Here's another way to approach the problem
A = old value = 20
B = new value = 15
C = percent change
C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%
C = [ (15-20)/20 ] * 100%
C = (-5/20)*100%
C = -0.25*100%
C = -25%
The negative C value means we have a negative percent change, ie we have a percent decrease. So this is another way to get a 25% decrease.
First find the common factor of -30 and 75, which is 15.
Next find the common factors of the variables:
The factors of x$6 is x*x*x*x
Factor for y is y
Factors for Z^3 is z*z*z
Factors for Z^2 is z*z
The GCF would be x^4z^2
Final answer = 15x^4z^2
Any value which is more than 2 standard deviations away from the mean is considered to be "unusual."
2 standard deviations above the mean 52.4 mp would be 52.4+2(1.8), or 56; 2 std devs below the mean would be 52.4 - 2(1.8), or 48.8. Thus, any value larger than 56 or any value smaller than 48.8 would be "unusual."
54.8, 49.1 and 51.3 are not unusual; 56.5 is unusual, because it's greaster than 56.
