Formula for finding percent change (increase or decrease) is amount of the change divided by the original amount.
Here, the amount of the change is 50 and the original amount is 250.
50/250= 0.2
Multiply by 100 to get percent.
20% decrease (because budget went down)
Just do 240 times 1/8 which is the same thing as 240/8, which is 30
Answer:
A) The solution set is (6,-8).
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - y = 26
-3x - 3x Subtract 3x from both sides
-y = -3x + 26 Divide both sides by -1
y = 3x - 26
Now plug this into 7x + 8y = -22 to solve for x
7x + 8(3x - 26) = -22 Distribute
7x + 24x - 208 = -22 Combine like terms
31x - 208 = -22
+ 208 + 208 Add 208 to both sides
31x = 186 Divide both sides by 31
x = 6
Plug this into y = 3x - 26 to solve for y
y = 3(6) - 26 Multiply
y = 18 - 26 Subtract
y = -8
