Answer:

decrease by 2.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: P% * X = Y.

P is 10%, X is 150, so the equation is 10% * 150 = Y.

Convert 10% to a decimal by removing the percent sign and dividing by 100: 10/100 = 0.10.

lara [203]

Answer:

4.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

800(1-0.01)=\color{green}{792}

800(1−0.01)=792

6180(1-0.05)=\color{blue}{5871}

6180(1−0.05)=5871

Last Year This Year

Stock A 800 792

Stock B 6180 5871

Total 6980 6663

\text{Find overall decrease:}

Find overall decrease:

6980(1-r)=6663

6980(1−r)=6663

\frac{6980(1-r)}{6980}=\frac{6663}{6980}

6980

6980(1−r)

​

=

6980

6663

​

1-r=0.954585

1−r=0.954585

-r=-0.045415

−r=−0.045415

Subtract 1

r=0.045415

r=0.045415

Divide by -1

\text{Final Answer: }4.5\%

Final Answer: 4.5%

Multiply by 100 and round to nearest 10th

4 2/3+5x=7-2x

Add 2x to both sides.

4 2/3+7x=7

Subtract 4 2/3 on both sides.

7x=2 1/3

7x=7/3

Divide by 7 on both sides.

x=1/3

answer: x=1/3

Cari owns a horse farm and a horse trailer than can transport up to 8000 pounds of livestock and tack. She travels with 5 horses
tatuchka [14]
In order to find out the answer for this, let us try to analyze the question. Since it is given that 6240 pounds is the total weight of her 5 horses and t represents the weight of each tack per horse, the inequality that could be used to determine the weight of tack Cari can allow for each horse would be this: <span>6240+5t≤8000
6240+5t indicates the total weight, and that this weight does not exceed 8000. Hope this answer helps.</span>
