Answer: 14.7338936% decrease

\frac{5355}{100} = \frac{4566}{x}

cross-multiply

85.2661064 = x

100 - 85.2661064 = 14.7338936

Check: 0.852661064 * 5355 = 4566

If permitted, you may round for a simpler (yet less precise and exact) answer.  For instance, rounding to the hundredths would make it ~14.73%.

8(61 + p) = 168<br> p =
anygoal [31]

Answer:

p = -40

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Distribute </u>

8(61 + p) = 168

(8 * 61) + (8 * p) = 168

488 + 8p = 168

<u>Step 2:  Subtract 488 from both sides </u>

488 + 8p - 488 = 168 - 488

8p = -320

<u>Step 3:  Divide both sides by 8 </u>

8p / 8 = -320 / 8

<em>p = -40 </em>

Answer:  p = -40

Answer:

A. 13 + t = 17

The top rectangle shows 13 and t, the 13 and t rectangle is the same size as the 17 rectangle so 13 + t = 17. It's not multiplication as there's no multiple's of 13 or t on the diagram.
