Answer:

$90

Step-by-step explanation:

The shoes now cost 130% of the original cost

The original cost is 100%

Take the new amount and divide it by 130:

117/130 = .90

Then multiply that number by 100 to get the original percent

.90 x 100 = $90

To check, multiply $90 by 130% or 1.30 to make sure that a 30% increase makes the product $117

$90 x 1.30 = $117

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

1/2 + 5/2 i

Step-by-step explanation:

(-5+i)         i

---------* --------

2i             i

cannot have i in the denominator so we multiply by i

(-5+i)         i             -5i + i^2

---------* --------  = ----------------

2i             i              +2i^2

remember i^2 = -1

     -5i + -1        -1 -5i

= ---------------- = ------------------

    +2(-1)                        -2

get rid of the negative in the denominator by multiplying the top and bottom by -1

    (-1 -5i) * -1

= ------------------

          -2*(-1)


    (1 +5i)

= ------------------   =   1/2 + 5/2 i

          2

What is this percent of change 40;72
salantis [7]
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%
