Answer: n=-36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be n

The number decrease by 38,can be written as n-38

Equate both

2n-2=n-38

Collect like terms

2n-n=-38+2

n=-36

The number is -36

Bad Investment After Mrs. Fisher lost 9% of her investment, she had $22,750. What was Mrs. Fisher's original investment?​
stira [4]

Answer:

$2500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The lost percentage = 9%

Amount she had = $22,750

We need to find Mrs. Fisher's original investment.

As she had lost 9%, it means she will remain with 91% of her investment. Let the original investment is x.

So,

91\%\ of \ x=22,750\\\\\dfrac{91}{100}x=22,750\\\\x=\dfrac{22,750\times 100}{91}\\\\x=\$25000

So, her original investment is equal to $25000.
