The answer to these two questions are not the same. We don't agree with Noah.
Reason:
Let's start with the first question.
1. Given: rate = 10% increase, base/original number = 550 bison
10% of 550 is:

10% of 550 is 55. Hence, there is an increase of 55 bison this year. This year, there are 550 + 55 = 605 bison in the herd.
2. Given: rate = 10% decrease, percentage/final number = 550 bison
Applying the concept of Percentage = Base x Rate, we can get the Base or the original number of bison before the decrease by dividing Percentage over Rate.

Filling in the formula with the given values in question 2, we have:

Last year, there were 611 bison.
As we can see, the answer for number 1 is 605 bison while the answer for the number 2 is 611 bison. The answer of the two questions are not the same.
The multiplicative inverse of -13/14 as in the task content is; -14/13.
<h3>What is the multiplicative inverse of -13/14?</h3>
The multiplicative inverse of a number x is given as; 1/x.
On this same note, it follows that since, the number whose multiplicative inverse is to be found is: -13/14, the multiplicative inverse is; -14/13.

Answer:
The value now = $207,360
Step-by-step explanation:
Rate of increase = 20% per year = 20/100 = 0.2 per year
value 3 years ago = $120,000
interest at year 1:
20% of 120,000
= 0.2 × 120,000 = 24,000
Value at the end of year 1
= initial value + interest
= 120,000 + 24,000 = $144,000
In year 2:
20% of 144,000
= 0.2 × 144,000 = 28,800
Value at the end of year 2:
144,000 + 28,800 = $172,800
In year 3
0.2 × 172,800 = 34,560
Value at the end of year 3:
34,560 + 172,800 = $207,360
Let

be the length of the rectangle and

be the width. In the problem it is given that

. It is also given that the area

. Substituting in the length in terms of width, we have

. Using the zero product property,

. Solving these we get the width

. However, it doesn't make sense for the width to be negative, so the width must be

. From that we can tell the length

.
Answer:
$61,500
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, we will simply take her hourly wage and multiply that by the hours she worked and take her additional earnings for each loan processed and multiply that by the number of loans she processed.
Consider her hourly wage of $15 per hour. If she worked 2000 hours, then we can say she got paid ($15 * 2000) = $30000 for her work that year.
Consider her processing fee of $35 per loan processed. If she processed 900 loans, then we can say she got paid ($35 * 900) = $31500 for her processed loans that year.
Then, to find her yearly total earnings, we simply add those two values. $30000 + $31500 = $61500.
Thus the loan officer made $61500 that year.
Cheers.
