Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Coin toss:
Letter Selection:
To work out the decrease, do original amount - new amount and then take that answer and divide it by the original amount, and then multiply by 100.
So you would do:
36.24 - 30.80 = 5.44
5.44 ÷ 36.24 × 100 = 15% to the nearest percent.
Hello from MrBillDoesMath
Answer: 12, 9
Discussion:
Let x be the first number and y the second number. The form the problem statement:
x + y = 21
x - y = 3
Add the two equations. This gives:
(x + x ) + ( y-y) = 21 + 3 =>
2x + 0 = 24 =>
x = 12
Since x -y =3, substituting in the value of x gives, 12 - y = 3 so y = 9
Thank you,

I don't really speak Spanish but I'll guess that says
How do I solve y = 1 - 2.5
Unless I'm missing something, there's not even any algebra here.
The way we subtract a bigger number from a smaller number is first we subtract the smaller number from the bigger number the regular way, then we prepend a minus sign.
y = 1 - 2.5 = -(2.5 - 1) = -1.5
