Answer: - 8.89%
I am going to explain you in detail ir order to help you to be able to do this kind of problems by yourself.
The definition of percent change, %, is:
change
% = ---------------- * 100
base value
The base value is from where you start or the value for which you want to asses the variation.
So, in this case the base value is 90 (starting value).
The change is final value - initial value = 82 - 90 = - 8. The negative sign means that the value decreased.
So, following the formula you get:
82 - 90 - 8
% = ----------- * 100 = -------- * 100 = - 8.89
90 90
Answer: the percent of change is - 8.89 %, meaning that the value decreased 8.89%.
Answer:
x=1 y=1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's use the elimination method.
3x+4y=7
2x-y = 1 (multiply both sides by 4)
8x-4y=4
3x+4y=7
(add both equations together)
11x=11
x=1
Plug x=1 into either of the equations
2(1) - y=1
2-y=1
2=1+y
y=1

Can you make the a bit more clear
Enrolement increased by 30% that means last year=100%
incease of 30%=30+100=130% now
now=182
percent means parts out of 100 so
130%=130/100=13/10
182=13/10 of x (x represents the number last year)
of means multipy so
182=13/10 times x
multiply both sides by 10/13 to clear fraction
182 times 10/13=x=140
140 students last year
