In a certain town there were 403 robberies last year. This year the number of robberies has gone down 35%. How many robberies were there this year, to the nearest whole number?

262

Step-by-step explanation:

From the Question, we know that:

In a certain town there were 403 robberies last year. This year the number of robberies has gone down 35%.

Step 1

Find the amount decreased

35% × 403

= 35/100 × 403

= 141.05

Step 2

The amount of robberies this year is:

= 403 - 141.05

= 261.95

Approximately to the nearest whole number = 262

answer: on graphs, the open and closed circles, or vertical asymptotes drawn as dashed lines us identify discontinuities.

as before, graphs and tables allow us to estimate at best.

when working with formulas, getting zero in the denominator indicates a point of discontinuity.

when working with piecewise-defined functions, check for discontinuities at the transition points where one piece ends and the next begins.
