Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

%s can drive a person crazy.

44% increase

Cost = 100% * x + 44%x

Cost = x ( 100 / 100 + 44/100)

Cost = x (1 + 0.44)

Cost = 1.44 x

93% decrease

Cost = 100%x - 93%x

Cost = x * (100/100 - 93/100)

Cost = x * (1 - 0.93

Cost = 0.07 x

Answer:

1.44 and 0.07

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

A 44% increase of the original amount (100%) is

100 + 44 = 144% = [tex]\frac{144}{100}[/tex] = 1.44 ← multiplier

(b)

A 93% decrease of the original amount (100%) is

100 - 93 = 7% = [tex]\frac{7}{100}[/tex] = 0.07 ← multiplier
