Answer:
in this form, the "-r" would cause the result to decrease
I assume that the answer is "r"
if r = .1 (10 %) then 1-.1 = .9
if you have 100 items then y = 100(.9)^1 = 90
the total decreased by 10% ... y = 100(.9)^2 after 2 time periods

Answer:
605 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
If the ratio of boys to girls is 5:7
and there are 847 girls
we can plug this value into the ratio by doing something like:
5:7
= 5/7
= x/847
Because the ratio has to be the same, we can substitute x for the number of boys and solve by the cross method or whatever you guys call it.
5 x
--- x ------
7 847
The x in the middle is just to show the direction you are multiplying.
the 5 is multiplied by the 847 and the 7 is multiplied by x.
847 * 5 = 4,235
4,235 divided by 7 is 605
605 is your answer.
The cross method can be used in most situations.
* is used to represent multiplication btw
Answer:
14x + 8
Explanation:
⇒ 4(5x+5) - 3(2x + 4)
distribute inside parenthesis
⇒ 4(5x) + 4(5) - 3(2x) - 3(4)
multiply the variables
⇒ 20x + 20 - 6x - 12
collect like terms
⇒ 20x - 6x + 20 - 12
subtract like term
⇒ 14x + 8
