Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage decrease = 30% × 25
New value = 25 - Percentage decreaseNew value =
25 - Percentage decrease =
25 - (30% × 25) =
25 - 30% × 25 =
(1 - 30%) × 25 =
(100% - 30%) × 25 =
70% × 25 =
70 ÷ 100 × 25 =
70 × 25 ÷ 100 =
1,750 ÷ 100 =
17.5
Absolute change (actual difference) =
New value - 25 =
17.5 - 25 =
- 7.5
Let
x------> the first even integer
x+2---->the second even integer
x+3---->the third even integer
we know that
-----> equation that represent the situation
solve for x
Combine like terms in the left side
therefore
<u>the answer is the option B</u>
