Answer:
The equation has the form: y = a + b * x where a and b are constant numbers. The variable x is the independent variable, and y is the dependent variable. Typically, you choose a value to substitute for the independent variable and then solve for the dependent variable.
Given:
Original or base : 40
New amount : 72
We need to find the difference of the new amount and the original amount
72 - 40 = 32
We then divide the difference by the original amount
32/40 = 0.80
We multiply the quotient by 100%
0.80 x 100% = 80%
The percentage of change is 80%
4x? because you solve the exponent
If u wanna go by a technical term then yes, it can. The positive and negative side of a number. 4 example, -5. It's absolute value is 5. Positive 5's absolute value is 5 as well.
Now if u don't wanna be technical and don't want to use negative numbers, then no, it cannot.
