Answer:
m = (3/4) n
Step-by-step explanation:
4m + 2n = 5n
The subtraction property of equality states that we can subtract 2n from both sides to isolate the m and its coefficient to get
4m = 3n
The division property of equality states that we can divide 4 from both sides to isolate only the m (we divide by 4 because anything divided by itself equals 1) to get
m = (3/4) n
Answer:
5% decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
A percentage change can be calculated using the formula ...
percentage change = ((new value)/(old value) -1) × 100%
Using the given population values, we can find the change to be ...

= -5.3% . . . . . a negative change indicates a decrease
The percentage decrease in the town's population is 5%.
