Answer:
20%
Step-by-step explanation:
Not sure if this is exactly correct, but let's say we start with 1 unit. If it increased by 25%, we get:
1 × 1.25 = 1.25 units.
Now, to get back to 1 unit, we need to find:
1.25 × ? = 1
? = 
= 0.80
So, 100% - 80 % = 20%
A 20% decrease.
Not completely sure though.
We need only realize that 1(-8)(-6)=48 to see that C) is the only answer from those choices that can be an answer.
Answer: 186+14-26+5=179 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Regainged 5 pounds and weighed 179 pounds = So he weiged 179-5=174 pounds."and lost 26 pounds"
2. To weigh 174 pounds,so he used to weigh 174+26=200 pounds, David gained 14 pounds over the winter, so he weighed 200-14=186 pounds.
3. Check 186+14-26+5=179 pounds
If you are doing algebra, then X+14-26+5=179
Solve for X.

Answer:</h2>
The cost in dollars is:
$ 1.8144
<h2>
Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
It is given that:
The 60-W lamp is operated continuously for 1 week.
We know that:
1 week=7 days
and 1 day=24 hours
This means that:
1 week=24×7
i.e. 1 week= 168 hours
Also, 1 kW=1000 W
This means that:
1 W=0.001 kW
Hence,
60-W=0. 060 KW
i.e. Power= 0.60 KW
Hence, the energy consumed is:
Energy=Power×Time
i.e.
Energy=0.060×168
i.e.
Energy=10.08 KWh
Also, cost of 1 KWh=18 cents
We know that:
1 cent=0.01 dollar
This means that:
18 cents=0.18 dollar
i.e.
Cost of 1 KWh=$ 0.18
Hence, cost of 10.08 KWh is: $ (0.18×10.08)
i.e.
Cost of 10.08 KWh is: $ 1.8144
