To estimate this I find it easy to turn the fractions into decimals and then you can easily estimate. To turn a fraction into a decimal divide the numerator by the denominator.
Answer:
The percentage decrease = 0.9%
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the formula
Percentage Decrease = [ (Initial Value - Final Value) / |Initial Value| ] × 100
= [(9.80 - 9.71 ) / (9.80)] × 100
= [0.09 / 9.80] × 100
= 0.009 × 100
= 0.9%
Therefore, the percentage decrease = 0.9%
1.5x + 0.2y = 2.68....multiply by 0.3
1.6x + 0.3y = 2.98...multiply by - 0.2
------------------------
0.45x + 0.06y = 0.804 (result of multiplying by 0.3)
- 0.32x - 0.06y = - 0.596 (result of multiplying by - 0.2)
----------------------add
0.13x = 0.208
x = 0.208/0.13
x = 1.6
1.5x + 0.2y = 2.68
1.5(1.6) + 0.2y = 2.68
2.4 + 0.2y = 2.68
0.2y = 2.68 - 2.4
0.2y = 0.28
y = 0.28/0.2
y = 1.4
solution (they intersect at) (1.6,1.4)
8*4
I hope that helps !
So, 4*4*4*4 = 16+16 which is 32
