The original area is <span>48 square feet.

The area after the decrease in the dimensions is </span><span>24 square feet​ .

24 is half of 48, so the area decreased by half, that is by 50%


Answer: </span>50%

a system of linear equations is given by the tables. one of the tables is represented by the equation y=-1/3x+7. The equation th
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

1). Other line is, y = \frac{1}{3}x+5

2). Solution of the system is (3, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the table (1),

Let the equation of the line from the given table is,

y - y' = m(x - x')

Where m = slope of the line

(x', y') is a point lying on the line.

Choose two points from the table which lie on the line.

Let the points are (0, 5) and (3, 6)

Slope = m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

                 = \frac{5-6}{0-3}

                 = \frac{1}{3}

Therefore, equation of the will be,

y - 5 = \frac{1}{3}(x-0)

y = \frac{1}{3}x+5 -------(1)

Let the other line from the table (2) is,

y - y" = m'(x - x")

Two points taken from this table are (0, 7) and (3, 6)

m' = \frac{7-6}{0-3}

    = -\frac{1}{3}

Equation of the line will be,

y - 7 = -\frac{1}{3}(x-0)

y = -\frac{1}{3}x+7 -------(2)

Therefore, equation of the other line will be, y = \frac{1}{3}x+5

By adding equations (1) and (2),

y + y = -\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}x+5+7

2y = 12

y = 6

From equation (1),

6 = \frac{1}{3}x+5

\frac{1}{3}x=7-6

x = 3

Therefore, solution of the system is (3, 6).
