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.
Answer:
3x - 8
Step-by-step explanation:
To find f(x + 1) substitute x = x + 1 into f(x)
f(x + 1) = 3(x + 1) - 7 = 3x + 3 - 7 = 3x - 4
Similarly
f(1) = 3(1) - 7 = 3 - 7 = - 4
Hence
f(x + 1) + f(1) = 3x - 4 - 4 = 3x - 8
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I am sorry but please give detailed question
well, what is 9,744/2,280? take that and move the decimal point two places to the right to find the answer.
Males that watched action movies : 13
males that watched drama movies : 5
so there are (13 - 5) = 8 more that watched action then drama
