What single decimal multiplier would you use to decrease by 12% followed by a 4% increase

Answer:

The single decimal multiplier is 0.9152

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to write a single decimal number that would work as to decrease an original value by 12% and increase it also by 4%

Let the original value be x

12% = 12/100 = 0.12

So decreasing by 12% would be x-0.12x = 0.88x

Now this 0.88x, we shall increase it by 4%

4% is same as 0.04

Thus by increasing , we have;

0.88x + 0.04(0.88x)

= 0.88x + 0.0352x = 0.9152x

So the single factor we are multiplying by is 0.9152

Help no time plzzzz plz plz​
Sav [38]

Answer:

FALSE

Step-by-step explanation:

<E in ∆AED ≅ <E in ∆CEB.

Both are 90°.

Side ED ≅ Side EB

Side AD ≅ Side CB.

Thus, two sides (ED and AD) and a non-included angle (<E) of ∆AED are congruent to corresponding two sides (EB and CB) and a non-included angle (<E) of ∆CEB. Therefore, by A-S-S Congruence Theorem, both triangles are congruent to each other not by SSS.

Manny used 8 tenth-size parts to model 8/10. Ana used fewer parts to model an equivalent fraction. How does the size of a part i
viktelen [127]
Alrighty, let's think of it like this: You are trying to fill a box with a bunch of sports balls. You have tiny little golf balls, and you have giant bowling balls. You need to fill this same box all the way up.

If you fill it with the tiny golf balls, you are going to need a <em>whole lot of them!</em>

If you are putting in bowling balls, only a few of them will fit, because they are so much bigger.

When it comes to your fraction, the box is the the number 8/10. That number will not change because we are not changing the size of the box.

We are just changing what we are filling it with. Manny, can fit 8 parts, or in this case balls, into the box.

It says Ana uses fewer parts, so she cannot fit as many in as Manny.

This means that Manny would have the golf balls, since he can fit more in than Ana, who must have the bowling balls.

So which is bigger? A bowling ball or a golf ball?

A bowling ball, which is what Ana has. So <u><em>Ana's part will be bigger</em></u> in size.

Lisa sells cars for a salary of 2500 per month plus 2% commission of her total car sales. What should her total of car sales be
Bumek [7]

Answer:

$50,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = car sales

We multiply x by 0.02 since she earns 2% along with the added $2500 so that she can end up with $3500

3500 = 0.02x + 2500

Subtract 2500 from both sides

3500 - 2500 = 0.02x + 2500 - 2500

1000 = 0.02x

Divide both sides by 0.02

1000/0.02 = 0.02x/0.02

x = 50000
