An organization's $3500 charity donation increased by 4%, but later this decreased by 7% of the new donation. Did their donations decrease or increase? By how many dollars?

Respuesta :

absor201

The donation decreased by 114.8 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Initial Donation = d = $3500

Increase = 4%

So,

[tex]Total\ increase = 4\%\ of\ 3500\\=0.04*3500\\=140\\New\ donation= 3500+140\\=3640[/tex]

The new donation is: $3640

The new donation was decreased by 7%

So,

[tex]Decrease = 7\%\ of\ 3640\\=0.07*3640\\=254.8\\So,\\Decreased\ Donation= 3640-254.8\\=3385.2[/tex]

So the final donation is $3358.2

As we can see the new donation is less than the initial $3500,

So,

Difference = 3500-3358.2

=$114.8
