Answer:

400%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sales be "100" in 1994

Since, it decreased 80%, the sales was:

80% = 80/100 = 0.8

0.8 * 100 = 80 (decreased by 80)

So, it was

Sales in 1995: 100 - 80 = 20

Sales in 1996 was same as in 1994, so that's 100

Thus,

Sales in 1994: 100

Sales in 1995: 20

Sales in 1996: 100

We need to find percentage increase form 1995 to 1996, that is what percentage increase is from 20 to 100?

We will use the formula:

\frac{New-Old}{Old}*100

Where

New is 100

Old is 20

SO, we have:

\frac{New-Old}{Old}*100\\=\frac{100-20}{20}*100\\=4*100\\=400

So, it increased by 400%

Answer:

oh hey I gotchu-

first of all you are gonna make that into two rectangle by slicing the top off if that makes sense so you now have a large rectangle (11×12) and a small one (3×8) now you use the area formula for rectangles base×height so the small one becomes (3×8)=24 and the large one is (11×12)=132. now to make them into one shape for the total area you add those two values 132+24=156 so your total area is 156m²

Schach [20]
Oranges = x
apples = y

8x + 11y = 15.22
x = 0.50

8(0.50) + 11y = 15.22
4 + 11y = 15.22
11y = 15.22 - 4
11y = 11.22
y = 11.22/11
y = 1.02 <== cost of each apple
