Answer:

<u>The percent decrease of the microwave from the original price to the sale price is 24%</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Original price of a microwave = $ 75

Mark-up price of the microwave = $ 90

Sale price of the microwave = $ 57

2. What is the percent decrease from the original price to the sale price?

For answering this question we will use the Direct Rule of Three this way:

Price         Percentage

75                 100%

57                   x

75x = 57 * 100

75x = 5,700

x = 5,700/75

x = 76

76 = 100 - 24

<u>The percent decrease of the microwave from the original price to the sale price is 24%</u>

Six plus -2 times a number is the same as 26 plus six times the same number.
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

and according to question,

six + 2 times a number = 2x + 6

26 + 6 times a number = 6x + 26

→ 2x + 6 = 6x + 26

→ -6x + 2x = 26 - 6

→ -4x = 20

→ x = 20/4 = 5

→ x = 5

therefore, the number is 5.

hope this answer helps you dear...take care and may u have a great day ahead!
