What is the result when the numbe 40 is decreased by 10%?

The answer is 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Decrease number by 40% of its value.

Percentage decrease = 40% × 10

New value =  36

40 - Percentage decrease =

40 - (10% × 40) remove the parentheses

40 - 10% × 40

(1 - 10%) × 40

(100% - 10%) × 40 = change 40 to 100% because 40 is a hundred percent of 10%

90% × 40

90 ÷ 100 × 40 =  36

on a coordinate grid, point a is at (−4.0, −2.4) and point b is at (4.0, −2.4). point b is a reflection of point a across the –axis. input either a lowercase x or i think is the right awnser
