\bf \cfrac{4A}{5}\implies \cfrac{4}{5}\cdot A\impliedby \textit{A is being reduced to four fifths} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{let's convert four fifths to percentage}}{\cfrac{4}{5}\cdot 100\implies \cfrac{400}{5}\implies 80}


so 4/5 of A is really 80% of A then.

since a whole A is 100% of A, 100% - 80% = 20%, A is being reduced by 20%, namely 1/5.

Solve the formula for n. A=a+d(n-1) evaluate n when A=25, a=5, and d=13
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You;ll run into this formula a lot. Make sure you study it carefully.

A = 25

a = 5

d = 13

Find n

25 = 5 + 13*(n- 1)

20 = 13(n - 1)

This isn't going to work out. 20/13 does not give a whole number which it should.

The number n and −34 are additive inverses.
lorasvet [3.4K]

we have the numbers

n\\ and\\ -\frac{3}{4}

we know that

The sum of a number and its additive inverse is 0

so

n+(-\frac{3}{4})=0\\\\ n=\frac{3}{4}

therefore

the number n is equal to \frac{3}{4}

the sum is equal to zero

the answer Part a) and Part b) in the attached figure

What's the percent of change for 30 to 90
Agata [3.3K]
First of all, remember that 100% is one whole thing.

Then.look at the problem, and see that 90 is three times 30.

-- 90 is 300% <em><u>of</u></em> an entire 30 .

-- To go from 30 to 90, you have to increase the 30 <em>by</em> 200% of itself.
