<h3>
Answer: 10.68% decrease (choice F)</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
A decrease of 23% means that you still retain 77% of the original value. This is because 23% + 77% = 100%. Or you could write it like this: 100% - 23% = 77%. The 77% then converts to the multiplier 0.77
An increase of 16% will involve the multiplier 1.16 in which we can think of it like 1.16 = 1 + 0.16 = 100% + 16%
Now we'll multiply those two decimal values mentioned:
0.77*1.16 = 0.8932
This result is smaller than 1, so we have a percent decrease of some sort. Subtract it from 1 to find the decimal form of the percent decrease
1 - 0.8932 = 0.1068
Lastly, move the decimal point 2 spots to the right:
0.1068 converts to 10.68%
We have a decrease of 10.68% overall when combining the initial 23% decrease followed by the 16% increase.
It turns out the order doesn't matter, and we could do the 16% increase first then the 23% decrease next. The key as to why the order doesn't matter all relies on the fact that multiplication can be done in any order. As you can probably guess, this process can be extended for as many percentage increases and/or decreases that you want.
Answer:
v = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
First we would have to distribute the 8(-5 - 7v). To do this we would multiply 8 by -5 and 8 by -7v to get
. After this, we would have to simplify like terms by subtracting 56v from -5v to get
. We now have to get the variable on one side and to do that, we can add 40 to both sides to get
. Finally to get the variable alone, we would have to divide both sides by -61 to get
.

Answer:
3 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
So because the fraction in attatched to the whole numbers have the same denominator you can literally just subtract the whole numbers and the fractions. (You do them seperatly) (5-2)=3 (3/4-1/4) = 2/4 or 1/2
The answer would be 7/9. If the spinner has 9 sections and you want to know the probability of NOT landing on a 1 or a 9, you would subtract 2 from 9 since there are 2 numbers and 9 total.
Can you explain the question in words please?
