<span>Answer:
The multiplication factor of increase should be inverse of the multiplication factor of decrease.
e.g. Say you have a number 100.
You increase it by 25%. The multiplication factor is 5/4 i.e. when you multiply 100 by 5/4, you get 100*5/4 = 125. This is 25% more than 100.
Now you want to decrease it by a certain % such that you get 100 back.
Basically, 100*5/4 * x = 100
So x = 4/5 (inverse of 5/4)
Hence, you decrease by 20% (the multiplication factor of 20% is 4/5)
or
Use this formula: cumulative % change = a + b + ab/100
You want the cumulative change to be 0.
a + b + ab/100 = 0
If you know that you are increasing by 25% and want to find the % by which you should decrease to get the same number,
25 + b + 25b/100 = 0
5b/4 = -25
b = -20
So you need to decrease (hence you get the -ve sign) by 20%.</span>

Answer:
542 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
currently our mean is =530
i got that by adding all the number out which equal too =2,650
and divide it by how many number there are which is 5
2,650/5=530
After some trial and error i found it
so you add 494+690+502+478+486+542=3,192
3,192/6=532
and that was our goal
so the 6th month she talked on the phone for 542 minutes
pls mark me brainliest
Answer:
Points -2 and -6 on the number line are the two solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the definition of absolute value as a starting point
To solve the equation, you need to treat the two cases as above:
The solution x=-2 is consistent with the condition x>=-4, so it is the first and valid solution. Now the second case of the absolute value:
Again, the second solution -6 complies with the requirement that x<-4, so it is valid.
