Answer: 20% Explanation: We have to remember a percentage is something out of a total or original amount. In this case, the original price is 25,000. Now we have to find out how much it decreased. 25,000 to 20,000 is a decrease of 5,000. Now the percentage is the amount out of the total. This is 5,000 (decrease) out of 25,000 (original price) 5,000/25,000 5/25 20/100 .2 or 20%
Step-by-step explanation:
exactly.
maybe this helps even more : always identify what is supposed to be 100% and what would be 1% then (1/100 of 100%). and then you check how often 1% fits into the amount in question.
100% = 25000
1% = 100%/100 = 25000/100 = 250
the price decrease is 25000 - 20000 = 5000.
so, the percentage is
difference /1% = 5000/250 = 20%

Answer:
y = -3(x+2)^2 - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
y = a(x+2)^2 -6
-18 = a(-2)^2 - 6
-12 = 4a
a = -3
y = -3(x+2)^2 - 6
63 5 tens=50 13 ones=10 and 3 leftover 50+13=63
