Asap. I will downvote if found it incorrect.
If an investment decreases 1% the first year, 6% the second year and 9% the third year, what is the
"average" percent decrease? (Enter answer as a percent, rounded to 1 decimal place).
Remember two things. First, percentages are applied using multiplication, so you cannot just add
the 3 numbers together and divide by 3. Also, percent increases and decreases result in "percent of"
so the factors in the multiplication are NOT the percent decreases, but the "percents of". You have
to start by finding the geometric mean of the "percents of" and then use that to give the "average"
percent decrease.
The GDP of a certain country is $615 billion and is increasing by $25 thousand per person. The population of that country is 74 million and is increasing by 0.7 million people per year. How quickly is the GDP of that country increasing?
