Step-by-step explanation:
Put the value y.
-2x-8(-5x+22)=14
-2x+40x-176= 14
38x-176 =14
38x = 190
x=5
Now put the value of X to find Y
Y= -5(5)+22= -25+22 = -3
=>X=. 5
=>Y= -3
Okie, so percent decrease is the amount loss divided by the original number and multiplied by 100 to find the percent. This is because you are finding the amount loss in terms of the total amount - percent basically.
The amount loss : 4 feet
4 feet/ 12 feet = .3333 (ratio of how much cut) multiply by 100 --> 33.3% decrease. From 12 feet to 8 feet is a 33.3 % decrease. I hope this helps :-)
1/4 to a decimal 0.25
to a percent is 25%
The interest rate is B. 4%
Given:
Principal = 450
Interest = 126
term = 7
rate = ?
Simple Interest is computed by multiplying the Principal, rate, and term.
Interest = P × r × t
126 = 450 × r × 7
126 = 3150r
r = 126/3150
r = 0.04 x 100% = 4%
To check:
I = 450 × 0.04 x 7
I = 18 × 7
I = 126
