The percent of change = ((new value - old value) / old value) * 100%

In our problem,

New value = 54

Old value = 56

Let's plug our numbers in

((54 - 56) / 56) * 100% = - 3.6%

The number decreased by 3.6%

3x+3y+2(2x-y) equivalent fractions to this problem

Anastaziya [24]

Distribute the 2 into the 2x and -y

Then add “like terms” which are 3x and 4x... 3y and -2y

Which then becomes 7x+y

There are no more “like terms” so that is your final answer
