You do the sum backwards,
36-16=17
17x3=51
Then you check it to make sure,
51/3=17
17+19=36
:) hope this hepled x
In 1997 = 17697
Because, each year, the number of employees is expected to decrease by 2.2%, find 2.2% of 17697 and subtract from the number.
2.2/100 x 17697 = 38933.4/100 = 389.334
^that was calculating 2.2% of 17697. Now we subtract:
17697.000
- 389.334
17307.666 =
Round to the nearest whole number = 17308
Answer: in 1998, the expected number of workers is 17308
D is common in both polynomials
The answer is 5900 as 879 in 5000 is closer to 900 rather than 800.
