3c + 5t = 39....multiply by -3
9c + 7t = 63
----------------
-9c - 15t = - 117 (result of multiplying by -3)
9c + 7t = 63
---------------add
- 8t = - 54
t = -54/-8
t = 6.75 <=== tables are 6.75

3c + 5t = 39
3c + 5(6.75) = 39
3c + 33.75 = 39
3c = 39 - 33.75
3c = 5.25
c = 5.25/3
c = 1.75 <=== 1.75 per chair

The price of a technology stock has dropped to $9.71 today. Yesterday's price was $9.80. Find the percentage decrease.
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

The percentage decrease = 0.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Initial value = $9.80
  • Final value = $9.71

Using the formula

Percentage Decrease = [ (Initial Value - Final Value) / |Initial Value| ] × 100

                                    = [(9.80 - 9.71 ) / (9.80)] × 100

                                    = [0.09 / 9.80] × 100

                                    = 0.009 × 100  

                                    = 0.9%

Therefore, the percentage decrease = 0.9%
