Answer:

Decreased by 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

0.5 x ? = 0.4

? = 0.4/0.5

? = 0.8

1 - 0.8 = 0.2

0.2 = 20%

To check, 20% of 0.5 is 0.1. 0.5 - 0.1 is 0.4. So the answer is correct.

Elena L [17]

Answer:

x = 5/(a-b+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

ax+3x=bx+5

Collect all the terms that has x:

ax-bx+3x = 5 (Subtracting bx both sides)

Take out the x!

x(a-b+3) =5

Divide (a-b+3) both sides to solve for x

x = 5/(a-b+3)

Hope this helps!
