Multiplying or dividing two related quantities by the same number is called scaling
Answer: whats the question exactly?
Step-by-step explanation:
First, since we must follow PEMDAS, we need to do the operation that is first, which is addition.
-3.9 + 6.01 ← Adding a negative means subtracting, then giving the sign of the bigger number.
So now we solved those and we got this answer: 2.11
Now, we need to subtract and re-write the expression.
2.11 - (-7.423) = 2.11 + 7.423= 9.533
Ok....so now we have our final answer, and we have the choices above.
The only answer that matches ours is the last one.
Final answer: 9.533
Hope I helped ^_^
Old price: p1 = $ 3.90;
New price: p2 = $ 3.40.
The percentual decrease is given by
d(%) = [ (p2 - p1) / p1 ] * 100 %
d(%) = [ (3.40 - 3.90) / 3.90 ] * 100 %
d(%) = [ - 0.50 / 3.90 ] * 100 %
d(%) = - 0.128 * 100 %
d(%) = - 12.8 % (approximately)
So the price fell 12.8 % approximately.
I hope this helps. =)
