When a number is decreased by 20% of itself, the result is 128. what is the number?

1 answer:

4 0

The number was 160 because 5/4•128=160. 5/4 represents inverting 80% and multiplying it by the number to determine how the result became 128. For checking over all you have to do is do 4/5 or 80%•160 which shall give you 128.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the radical

$\frac{U}{\frac{1}{f}+\frac{1}{g} }$

= $\frac{U}{\frac{g+f}{fg} }$

= $\frac{Ufg}{g+f}$

Square both sides

T² = $\frac{Ufg}{g+f}$ ( multiply both sides by (g + f) )

T²(g + f) = Ufg ( distribute left side )

T²g + T²f = Ufg ← subtract Ufg from both sides

T²g - Ufg + T²f = 0 ← subtract T²f from both sides

T²g - Ufg = - T²f ← factor out g from each term on the left side

g(T² - Uf) = - T²f ← divide both sides by (T² - Uf)

g = - $\frac{T^2f}{T^2-Uf}$ = $\frac{T^2f}{Uf-T^2}$
