Because it's decreasing, you use the formula (1-x/100)y with x the percentage decreased which is here 40, and y the number decreased which is here 90
So we get
(1-40/100) * 90
(100/100 - 40/100) * 90
60/100 * 90
5400/100
54
So 90 decreased by 40% is 54
Hope this Helps :)
Answer:k=4.5
Step-by-step explanation:4.5/1.5=3
Answer:
the answer is 50 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
because your interest is only 50% so whats 100 divided into 2 its 50
X: earn per hour during the week
y: earn per hour during the weekend
13x + 14y = 250.90
15x + 8y = 204.70
Multiply the first equation by 4 and the second equation by 7
52x + 56y = 1003.6
105x + 56y = 1432.90
Subtract the first equation from the second:
53x = 429.30
x = 429.30/ 53
x = 8.10
Solve any of the equation for y:
15x + 8y = 204.70
y = [204.70 - 15(8.10)]/8 = 10.40
y - x = 10.40 -8.10 = 2.30
Answer: she earns $2.30 per hour more during the weekend than during the week.
