If you decrease something by 4 percent,
you are keeping (100% - 4%) or 96% of the original
so multiply by the original amount by 96 percent or .96
If you have 100 pennies, and you give 4 away ( 4 percent decrease), you still have 96 pennies. You are keeping 96 percent of what you started with. This works no matter how much you start with.
Example:
you have 40 dollars
4% decrease
40 * .04 = 1.6 take this away
40 - 1.6 = 38.4 left
you keep 96 percent
40 * .96 = 38.4 left
A contradiction is:always true never false hope this helps
Click off the first one because 180 (Thea) < 225 (Eleanor). Then keep the second one and click the third and fourth one.
The drawbridge will be at an incline of 10.56 degrees. That is 5.56 degrees more than it's initial incline of 5 degrees.
If you draw a picture of this situation, you will see that you can write a sine ratio with the 11 and 60 (opposite over hypotenuse)
sin(x) = 11/60 Solve the equation for x
x = 10.56
