Question

Footwear manufacturing is projected to decrease output by 5% from 2009 to 2019. If footwear manufacturing had 1.5 million dollars of output in 2009, approximately how much output is expected in 2019?

Answer 1

$1,425,000

Explanation:

1 (original output) - .05 (decrease in output) = .95 (2019 output compared to 2009)

1,500,000 X .95 = 1,425,000

I hope this helps!
