7 is 1/4 of 28, so 7 is 25% of 28.
The drop from 28 to 7 is a drop of 21.
21 is 3 times 7, so 21 is 3 times 25%.

Answer: It is a 75% decrease.

Answer:

Percentage decrease in the reservoir level is 75%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial level of the water in the reservoir was recorded = 28 feet

Level of water at the reservoir after the drop = 7 feet

Decrease in the water level = (28 - 7) = 21 feet

Now to calculate the percentage drop we will apply the formula,

Percentage change = \frac{\text{Net change}}{\text{Initial level}}\times 100

= \frac{21}{28}\times 100

= 75%

Percentage decrease in the reservoir level is 75%.

That's OK, but you have not said which variable you want to solve it for.

Subtract c from each side:    ax = dx - c

Subtract  dx  from each side:   ax - dx = -c

Factor the left side:                 x (a - d) = -c

Divide each side by (a - d) :      x = -c / (a - d)  or  <u>x = c / (d - a)</u> .

A box holds three circular flower pots, each with the same diameter. What is the exact area of the base of one pot? Show your wo
RoseWind [281]
19.635 square inches.

Assuming that the pots are arranged in a straight line, each pot would have a diameter of 5, because 5 • 3 = 15, and 15 is the length of the box. The radius of the base of one pot is therefore 2.5.
A = pi • r^2 = pi • 2.5^2 = 19.635 (approximation)

An angle measure 20 more than the measure of its supplementary angle.What is the measure of each angle?
SOVA2 [1]

Based on the definition of supplementary angles, the measure of both angles are: 80° and 100°.

<h3>What are Supplementary Angles?</h3>

The sum of angles that are supplementary to each other equals 180 degrees.

Let the measure of the supplementary angle be x.

The other angle will be: x + 20.

(x + 20) + x = 180

x + 20 + x = 180

2x + 20 = 180

2x = 180 - 20

2x = 160

x = 160/2

x = 80°

The other angle will be x + 20 = 80 + 20 = 100°.

The measure of the angles are: 80° and 100°.
