The equation connects the variables A, x, y, z, P and Q
The following changes are made:
x and y are both increased by 50 %
z is decreased by 20 %
P is doubled and Q remains the same.
What is the resulting percentage change in A?
Answer:
4) A
‘x’ increases by 50% = 1.5x
‘y’ increases by 50% = 1.5y
‘z’decreases by 20% = 0.8z
‘P’ is doubled = 2P
‘Q’ remains the same = Q
