First you would subtract 30000 - 23,500 = 6500

Now divide 6500 by the original number

6500/30000= 0.22

Multiply by 100 to get percent

22% decrease

30,000 - 23,500 = 6,500
$\frac{6500}{30000} \times 100\% \\ = \frac{650000}{30000} \\ = 21.66\%$

The answer is 21.66% or 22% decrease.

Assume that f is continuous on [-4,4] and differentiable on (-4,4). The table gives some values of f'(x) x: -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1

$f$ will be increasing on the intervals where $f'(x)>0$ and decreasing wherever $f'(x)$ . Local extrema occur when $f'(x)=0$ and the sign of $f'(x)$ changes to either side of that point.

$f'(x)$ is positive when $x$ is between -4 and some number between -2 and -1, and also 2 (exclusive) and 4, so you can estimate that $f(x)$ is increasing on the intervals [-4, -2] and (2, 4].

$f'(x)$ is negative when $x$ is between some number between -2 and -1, up to some number less than 2. So $f(x)$ is decreasing on the interval [-1, 1].

You then have two possible cases for extrema occurring. The sign of $f'(x)$ changes for some $x$ between -2 and -1, and again to either side of $x=2$ .
