A number is first decreased by 40% and then again decreased by 60%. Find the percentage increase or decrease in the whole sum...please tell quickly

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

It is decreased by 76 percent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The key skills are percentage and multiplication with percentages.

You first have to get a variable. Let's use the letter o as a variable (o For orginial cost). Then we have to find out how much it is when o is decreased by 40 percent. 100% (or the whole) - 40% is 60%. Therefore, with a 40 percent decrease, It would be 60% of o, or 0.6o. Then, if it decreases by 60 percent, the final number would be 100% - 60 % or 40% of 0.6o. This means itbwould be 0.4 × 0.6o which is 0.24o0.24o means that o is 24 percent of its orginial number, which is 100% - 24% or a 76 percent decrease.

Hope you understood and have a nice day!

Answer:

  P = -0.00047x^2 +40x -130,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Profit is found by subtracting the company's costs from its revenue.

  P = R - C

  P = (50x -0.00047x^2) -(10x + 130,000)

  P = -0.00047x^2 +40x -130,000

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Key skills needed: Proportions, Cross multiplication, One variable Equations, Multiplication

1) Since this is a proportion, we need to cross multiply. A proportion is just 2 fractions equal to each other in this format.

---> Cross multiplication is when you multiply the first fraction's numerator by the second fraction's denominator, and you multiply the first fraction's denominator by the second fraction's numerator.

---> You set these products equal to each other.

2) So if we cross multiply it would be: 3(3x+5) = 5(3-2x)

---> If you multiply everything out, it would be --> 9x + 15 = 15 - 10x

3) Move the x terms to one side and the numbers to the other side

--->  9x + 10x = 15-15

4)  Combine like terms (9x+ 10x= 19x) (15-15=0) 19x = 0

5) Divide by 19 and x=0.

You and 3 friends decide to split a box
of one dozen donuts. Together, the
amount spent for the donuts is $17.45. If it costs $1.25 to park, how much did each donut cost per person?
WRITE AN EQUATION and solve.

Please hurry
Thx

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of individuals = 4

Cost of dozen donuts with transport = $17.45 + $1.25

= $18.7

Since there are 12 pieces in a dozen pack of donuts, then the amount of each donut is:

= $18.7/ 12

= $1.56

So, if four people share a dozen donut, each person will have:

= 12/4

= 3 donuts each

and the price each person will pay for the three donuts will be:

= $1.56 × 3

= $4.68


Angle 1 and angle 2 form a linear pair. If the measure of angle 1 = (5x+9)º and
the measure of angle 2 = (3x+11)º, find the measure of each angle.
X =
angle 1 =
angle 2 =

Answers

- linear pairs are supplementary, meaning they add up to 180°

5x + 9 + 3x + 11 = 180

8x + 20 = 180

8x = 160

x = 20

- now plug in.

angle 1: 5(20) + 9 = 100 + 9 = 109°

angle 2: 3(20) + 11 = 60 + 11 = 71°

Step-by-step explanation: To solve for X, we'll need to move all terms that don't contain X to the right and solve.

1. Add 16 to both sides

30x - 16 + 16 = 14 + 16

30x = 30
