To decrease it by 3% we need to fine 97% of it and 97% is the same as 0.97
16870 times 0.97=16363.9
16870 decreased by 3% is 16363.9
I hope I've helped!
First to solve this problem you are going to figure out how tall the tree is. So if Sharon is 54 inches and the tree 5 times the height she is you would do 54*5= 270. Next you go to find out how tall the floor of her tree house is. It says the floor is twice the height of her so you would do 54*2=108. Then the problem asks the difference between the top of the tree and the floor of the tree house. So 270-108=162. I hope this helped. :) Brainliest answer?
1. To translate to the left, add to x.
The equation is: y = |x + 2|
2. To translate down, add to y.
The equation is: y + 2 = |x| OR y = |x| - 2 (subtract 2 from each side)
Hope this helps!
