Answer:

438.86

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 457 x 0.99 = 452.43 - Decreased by 1%

2. We need to decrease 452.43 again but this time by 3% - 452.43 x 0.97

3. This gives us an answer of 438.8571

4. Finally we need to round this to 2DP, the 7 (438.8571) rounds up so the number to the left increases. This leaves an answer of 438.86

Hope this helps :D

Mrs Jenkins picked some tomatoes from her garden. She used 5/9 of the tomatoes to make pasta sauce. Then she used 3/4 of the rem
serg [7]

Answer:

Final answer is 1/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Mrs Jenkins picked some tomatoes from her garden. She used 5/9 of the tomatoes to make pasta sauce. Then she used 3/4 of the remainder to make a salad. Now we need to find about what fraction of the tomatoes did Mrs Jenkins use to make the salad.

Since she used 5/9 of the tomatoes to make pasta sauce.

Then remaining amount of tomatoes = 1- 5/9 = 9/9 -5/9 = 4/9

Then she used 3/4 of the remainder to make a salad. So fraction of the tomatoes did Mrs Jenkins use to make the salad = (4/9)(3/4)=12/36=1/3

Hence final answer is 1/3.

4x + 6 < -6
Subtract 6 from both sides and the divide both sides by 4 to get the solution as follows:
4x + 6 < -6
4x + 6 - 6 < -6 -6
4x < -12
4x/4 < -12/4
x < -3
