Answer:

0.9545

Step-by-step explanation:

Let an integer be x.

If x is increased by 15%, then the value of the number would be

115/100x=1.15x

If 1.15x is decreased by 17%, then the value of the number would be:

(100-17)/100×1.15x

83/100×1.15x=0.9545x

maria [59]

Answer:

e^2 -7 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

2=ln(x+7)

Raise each side to the base of e
