Answer: Lets call the number x

decreased means subtraction.  If x is decreased bt 23% then the result is

x-23%(x)  =  x-(23/100)x    or x-.23x

x-.23x=539

.77x=539

x=539/.77

x=700

check:  700-.23(700)=539

           700-161=539

           539=539

           Our answer is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps❤️❤️❤️

Given: BD bisects ABC. Auxiliary EA is drawn such that AE || BD. Auxiliary BE is an extension of BC
AnnZ [28]
The required proof is given in the table below:

\begin{tabular}{|p{4cm}|p{6cm}|} 
 Statement & Reason \\ [1ex] 
1. $\overline{BD}$ bisects $\angle ABC$ & 1. Given \\
2. \angle DBC\cong\angle ABD & 2. De(finition of angle bisector \\ 
3. $\overline{AE}$||$\overline{BD}$ & 3. Given \\ 
4. \angle AEB\cong\angle DBC & 4. Corresponding angles \\
5. \angle AEB\cong\angle ABD & 5. Transitive property of equality \\ 
6. \angle ABD\cong\angle BAE & 6. Alternate angles
\end{tabular}
\begin{tabular}{|p{4cm}|p{6cm}|}
7. \angle AEB\cong\angle BAE & 7. Transitive property of equality \\
8. \overline{EB}\cong\overline{AB} & 8. From 7. $\Delta ABE$ is isosceles \\
9. EB = AB & 9. De(finition of congruence \\ 10. $\frac{AD}{DC}=\frac{EB}{BC}$ & 10. Triangle proportionality theorem \\
11. $\frac{AD}{DC}=\frac{AB}{BC}$ & 11. Substitution Property of equality \\[1ex] 
\end{tabular}
