Answer:

The initial value of 600 is larger and larger by 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all a 20% decreased of 600.

So, the new value will be 600(1 - \frac{20}{100}) = 600 \times 0.8 = 480.

Now, then it is increased by 20% i.e. 480 will be increased by 20%.

So, the new value will be 480(1 + \frac{20}{100}) = 480 \times 1.2 = 576.

Therefore, the initial value of 600 is larger and larger by (600 - 576) = 24. (Answer)

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Total Cost for Pretzels and juice is $9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of Bags of pretzels =3

Cost for each bag = $2.00

Total Cost of Pretzels is equal to product of Number of Bags of pretzels and Cost for each bag.

Framing in equation form we get;

Total Cost of Pretzels = 3\times 2= \$6

Also Given:

Number of Bottle of Juice = 2

Price of each bottle = $1.5

Total Cost of Juice is equal to product of Number of Bottle of Juice and Price of each bottle.

Framing in equation form we get;

Total Cost of Juice = 2\times 1.5= \$3

Total Cost of Pretzels and juice is equal to sum of Total Cost of Pretzels and Total Cost of Juice.

Total Cost of Pretzels and juice = Total Cost of Pretzels + Total Cost of Juice

Total Cost of Pretzels and juice = $6 + $3 =$9

Hence Total Cost for Pretzels and juice is $9.
