Answer:
The single decimal multiplier is 0.9152
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to write a single decimal number that would work as to decrease an original value by 12% and increase it also by 4%
Let the original value be x
12% = 12/100 = 0.12
So decreasing by 12% would be x-0.12x = 0.88x
Now this 0.88x, we shall increase it by 4%
4% is same as 0.04
Thus by increasing , we have;
0.88x + 0.04(0.88x)
= 0.88x + 0.0352x = 0.9152x
So the single factor we are multiplying by is 0.9152
The area of this polygon 53
23/25 as a percentage is 92%
Hope this helps (:
Answer: 3 or -3
Step-by-step explanation:
4 - |x| = 1
First subtract 4
-|x| = -3
The | | sign makes it both positive and negative
So -|3| and -|-3| will = -3
Remark
It looks like all you want is question 6. If that is the case, there are two ways to do it.
Algebra
<u>First answer</u>
abs(b - 22) = 5 Equate to + 5
b - 22 = 5 Add 22 to both sides.
b = 5 + 22
b = 27
<u>Second Answer</u>
Equate to - 5
b - 22 = -5
b = 22 - 5
b = 17
Method Two
<u>Graph the question</u>
The graph y = abs(b - 22) is shown below in red.
The values of y when y =5 are shown in blue.
