The product has decreased by 80 %
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
The product of the original numbers: xy
One number is decreased by 75 %
Let x be the number decreased by 75 %
new number = x - 75 % of x

Another number is decreased by 20 %
Let y be the number decreased by 20 %
new number = y - 20 % of y

<em><u>Now the product is given as:</u></em>

<em><u>Now we have to find the percent decreased</u></em>
Subtract new product and original product and then divide by original product . Multiply the result by 100 to get percentage

Here negative sign denotes decrease
Thus the product has decreased by 80 %
Answer:
12.29
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
4 pencil & 2 ruler = $8
2 pencil & 4 ruler = $10
let the no. of Pencil be X and no. of ruler be Y
4x + 2y = 8
2x + 4y= 10
solving the equation by elimination method,
multiplying eq 2 with 2
4x + 2y = 8
4x + 8y = 20
subtracting,
- 6 y = -12
y = 2
2x + 4(2)= 10
2x + 8 = 10
2x = 10 - 8
2x = 2
x = 1
Cost of 3 ruler + 3 pencil
= 3(1) + 3(2)
= 3 + 6
= 9
<h2 /><h2>= $9</h2>
The answer is 11 i think
102-9=93%3=31
102-3=99%9=11
When x equals 2 you have to plug in 2 for x in your equation, which would be y= 4(2)+2 = 8+2 =10 Final answer: 10
