Answer:
-3x-1y
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - 3y⇒ -2(4x-y)
⇒-2(4x - y) = -8x +2y
5x - 3y -8x + 2y
<u>Combine like terms:</u>
5x- 8x= -3x
-3y +2y = -1x
<u>-3x - 1y</u>
$16
20% is the same as 0.2 in decimal form, since its decreasing you multiply $20 by 0.8 to get 16. If it was increasing, it would be 20 times 1.2
12546
9.5% = 0.95 = 95
12,640 - 95 = 12546
