Explain reasoning!
1.) if you make 20% more money than me, then i make 20% less than you.
2.)if i have an average of 60% before the final , then i must score 80% on the final in order to raise my average up to 70% to pass the this math 75 class.

1.) Incorrect,

2.) Correct

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) Let x be the amount of money,

After increasing x by 20%,

New amount of money ( say y )= (100+20)% of x ( i.e. y is 20% more than x )

= 120 % of x

⇒ y = 1.20x

≈ 16.67%

Thus, x is approximately 16.67% less than y.

2.) First score = 60%,

Second score = x% ( let )

So, Average percentage score =

If

17.08

correct me if i am wrong.
