Find the missing number.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Vinil7 [7]2 years ago
4 0

Answer: 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

If we let the original amount be x, then after increasing it by 25%, we now have 1.25x

To get this back to x, we need to do 1.25x*(something) = x

this gives us that something = 1/1.25 = 0.8

meaning you need to decrease it by 100% - 80% = 20%

What is the value of x?
rodikova [14]
1) expand the brackets 
6(-3 - x) - 2x = 14
-18 - 6x - 2x = 14
simplify
-18 - 8x = 14
then add 18 to both sides to get the x's on there own
-8x = 32
then divide by -8
x = 32/-8
x = -4

2) multiply everything by 7x
2 + (6 x 7x) + ( 17x × 7x) = 18 x 7x
2 + 42x + 119x^2 = 126x
put everything on one side
119x^2 - 84x + 2 = 0
then use quadratic equation to solve

x = 0.024671849 or 0.6812105039

PLEASE ANSWER FOR LOTS OF POINTS
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

In Heather's solution to the problem, she wrote and solved an equation.

Her work is:

Step 1: 1.08(x +9.01 +0.98 +5.01) = 21.87

Solving like terms

1.08(x+15}=21.87

dividing both side by 1.08

we get

x+15=21.87/1.08

x+15=20.25

subtracting both side by 13.9198

x=20.25-15

x=5.25

According to correction

;

<u>Option </u><u>1</u><u>st</u>

<u>yes,it is correct.</u>
