Answer: 10.68% decrease (choice F)</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
A decrease of 23% means that you still retain 77% of the original value. This is because 23% + 77% = 100%. Or you could write it like this: 100% - 23% = 77%. The 77% then converts to the multiplier 0.77
An increase of 16% will involve the multiplier 1.16 in which we can think of it like 1.16 = 1 + 0.16 = 100% + 16%
Now we'll multiply those two decimal values mentioned:
0.77*1.16 = 0.8932
This result is smaller than 1, so we have a percent decrease of some sort. Subtract it from 1 to find the decimal form of the percent decrease
1 - 0.8932 = 0.1068
Lastly, move the decimal point 2 spots to the right:
0.1068 converts to 10.68%
We have a decrease of 10.68% overall when combining the initial 23% decrease followed by the 16% increase.
It turns out the order doesn't matter, and we could do the 16% increase first then the 23% decrease next. The key as to why the order doesn't matter all relies on the fact that multiplication can be done in any order. As you can probably guess, this process can be extended for as many percentage increases and/or decreases that you want.

log 2.5=log 21/2=log (3*7)/2=log3+log7-log 2=0.48+0.85-0.3=1.03
Answer:
36x-3y+4z^2+26-7x^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay well for starters, you can't subtract that because it's an expression, not an equation. And secondly, there was '?' which I'm going to assue=me was a typing error.
Now to actually simplify this mess of an expression, you just need to combine the like-terms! Once you do that you really can't do anything else, since you don't know the varibles.
You take 480 and divide it by 15, because it says per gallon. so then if the car goes 480 miles with 15 gallons, you have to figure out how to find per gallon. you divide 480/15 and your answer is 32
