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❤️❤️❤️

Two angles of a triangle measure 22 and 53 what is the measure of the third angle
Musya8 [376]
The third angle is 105.
How do I know this?
Add 22 and 53:
22 + 53 = 75
All interior angles on a triangle should add up to 180.
Subtract 75 from 180:
180 - 75 = 105
105 is our answer.
Hope this helps! =)

4x+5-2=3x+7x-15 I dont get how to get the answer for this please help.
fredd [130]
Hello there! How are you today?

4x + 5 -2 = 3x + 7x - 15

First, we need to get the variable (x) on one side. To do that, we must simplify the right side of the equation, and then decide what to do from there, so let's proceed to do so.

3x + 7x = 10x

4x + 5 - 2= 10x - 15

Now we have x simplified on both sides of the equation. However, we need x to be on one side of the equation in order to solve for it.
Subtract 4x from both sides.

4x - 4x = 0
10x - 4x = 6x

We are now left with:
6x - 15 = 5 - 2

Simplify the right side of the equation.

5 - 2 = 3

6x - 15 = 3

Now we need to isolate x. To isolate x, we need to add 15 to both sides, as x is being subtracted by 15, and adding 15 will cancel it out.

-15 + 15 = 0
3 + 15 = 18

We now are left with:
6x = 18

Now we only have one step left, and that is to solve for x. Since x is being multiplied by 6, we need to perform the opposite order of operations to cancel it out. To do that, we must divide both sides by 6 to solve for x.

6x = 18
Divide both sides by 6.

6x / 6 = x
18 / 6 = 3

We are now left with the solution:

x = 3

I hope this helps!
