Compound percentage reduction can be calculated by multiplying the initial number by (1-x)^t where x is the percentage reduction (/100, i.e. 1% reduction is 0.01), and t is the number of times it has reduced.
So:
a)

Where t is the number of weeks.
We can then just substitute in to work out the final pressure:
b) p = 45*0.94^6 =
31psi

A) 
C) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression :

Choices given :
A) 
B) 
C) 
D) 
To find the equivalent expression.
We will first evaluate the given expression.

⇒
[Quotient of a negative dividend and a positive divisor is always negative]
Evaluating each choice to select the equivalents.
A) 
⇒
[Quotient of a positive dividend and a negative divisor is always negative]
B) 
⇒ 
⇒ 
C) 
⇒
[Product of a positive and a negative is always a negative]
⇒ 
D) 
⇒
[Product of two negatives is always a positive]
⇒ 
∴ We see that the choices A and C are equivalent.
By algebra properties we find the following relationships between each pair of algebraic expressions:
- First equation: Case 4
- Second equation: Case 1
- Third equation: Case 2
- Fourth equation: Case 5
- Fifth equation: Case 3
<h3>How to determine pairs of equivalent equations</h3>
In this we must determine the equivalent algebraic expression related to given expressions, this can be done by applying algebra properties on equations from the second column until equivalent expression is found. Now we proceed to find for each case:
First equation
(7 - 2 · x) + (3 · x - 11)
(7 - 11) + (- 2 · x + 3 · x)
- 4 + (- 2 + 3) · x
- 4 + (1) · x
- 4 + (5 - 4) · x
- 4 - 4 · x + 5 · x
- 4 · (x + 1) + 5 · x → Case 4
Second equation
- 7 + 6 · x - 4 · x + 3
(6 · x - 4 · x) + (- 7 + 3)
(6 - 4) · x - 4
2 · x - 4
2 · (x - 2) → Case 1
Third equation
9 · x - 2 · (3 · x - 3)
9 · x - 6 · x + 6
3 · x + 6
(2 + 1) · x + (14 - 8)
[1 - (- 2)] · x + (14 - 8)
(x + 14) - (8 - 2 · x) → Case 2
Fourth equation
- 3 · x + 6 + 4 · x
x + 6
(5 - 4) · x + (7 - 1)
(7 + 5 · x) + (- 4 · x - 1) → Case 5
Fifth equation
- 2 · x + 9 + 5 · x + 6
3 · x + 15
3 · (x + 5) → Case 3
