Using proportions, it is found that $147.8 billion was spent on television advertising in the previous year.

  • $x, in billions, was spent on advertising expenditures on television last year.
  • This year, the amount declined 4.1%, hence it is 100% - 4.1% = 95.9% of last year's amount, that is, 0.959x.

This year spending's is of 141.7 billion, hence, the equation is:

0.959x = 141.7

x = \frac{141.7}{0.959}

x = 147.8

$147.8 billion was spent on television advertising in the previous year.

Why does the multiplicative inverse of a number have the same sign as the number?
denis23 [38]
<span>Look at the definition of multiplicative inverse. If two numbers are multiplicative inverses of each other, then by definition, their product will be equal to 1. And 1 is a positive number. If both numbers being multiplied are positive, then the result is positive. And of both numbers being multiplied are negative, then the result is still positive. But if one number is positive and the other is negative, then the result is negative. So if you want a positive result, then both numbers you're multiplying have to have the same sign. And since we want a result of 1 for multiplicative inverses and since 1 is positive, then the numbers being multiplied have to have the same sign.</span>

Can someone pls help me find what is 1/10+12/20?
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

\frac{7}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{10} can also be written as \frac{2}{20}

\frac{2}{20} +\frac{12}{20} =\frac{14}{20}

Simply to \frac{7}{10}

-OTHER METHOD-

\frac{12}{20} can be simplified to \frac{6}{10}

\frac{1}{10} +\frac{6}{10} =\frac{7}{10}
