Answer: 56.4102564% decrease
Explanation: First determine whether the number is increasing or decreasing. Since it changes from 39 to 17, it's going down so it's decreasing.
Now to find the percent decrease,
we divide the amount of change by the original number.
The amount of change is the difference between the two numbers
which in this case is 39 - 17 and the original number is 39.

39 - 17 is 22 so we're left with
which gives us 56.4102564
Remember however that our problem is asking for a <em>percent</em>, not a decimal. So we need to write 56.4102564 as a percent by moving the decimal point 2 places to the right to get 56.4102564.
So when a number changes from 39 to 17, it has decreased by 56.4102564%.
Answer:
We find 3/4-5/24 = 0.54166666666 and try 2/7 x 6/8 = 0.21428571428
this is 0.069 too much we look at this as a fraction = 0.07 which is 1/10 approx of the 6/8. we then reapply 7/9 x 2/7 x 3/3 = 0.2
So we went up by 1 and can show another
2/7 x 7/10 = 2.0
So to 1dp there is lots of fractions including 2/7 x 7/9 = 2.0
But for three fractions that multiply together we can chose 5/7 x 2/6 x 6/6 = 2.0 As 5 x 2 x 6 = 60 and 60/360-102 = 60/258 = 0.20 and divided 198 =numbers 8 and 1/3 work with = 1.98/8.3 = 2.38554
We try again 1.68/8.3 = -0.2024 = 2/8 x 8/10 = 0.2
The balance is 1.3/2 x 0.8/2 = 0.65 x 0.333 = 13/20 x 1/3
3/5 x 1/3 = 0.2
Well one third is 100
so two thirds must be 200
According to Wikipedia: "<span>In mathematics, a function
is a relation between a set of inputs and a set of permissible outputs
with the property that each input is related to exactly one output."
So based of this we need to look for a set where one of the x values or the y values is the same, and the other number is different.
Answer:
B.
(1,4) and (1,1) both have the same x, but different y!

Answer: Mike's arm span is 7.165 cm longer than the George's one.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that the association between height and arm span is modeled by the equation
y = 4.5 + 0.977*x
where y is height and x is arm span.
Mike is 172 cm tall, so his arm span is:
172cm = 4.5 + 0.977*x
x = (172 - 4.5)/0.977 = 171.443 cm
and George is 165 cm tall, so his arm span is:
x = (165 - 4.5)/0.977 = 164.278 cm
Then the difference between their arm span is:
171.443cm - 164.278cm = 7.165 cm
So Mike's arm span is 7.165 cm longer than the George's one.
