Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1. 96%
2. $6000
3. 176
4. 20%
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 1/5 of 80% is 16%. 80+16=96
2. 25% of 8000 is 2000. 8000-2000= 6000.
3. 10% increase of 200 is 20. 20+200=220. 20 percent of 220 is 44. 220-44=176
4. if you increase the original salary by 20%, then decreasing it by 20% of the new salary will give you the old salary.
3x-8 = 8x+4
subtract 3x from each side
-8 = 5x+4
subtract 4 from each side
-12 = 5x
divide -12 by 5 to get x
x = -12/5 = -2.4
