Percent decrease formula: new value - old value / old value

Solve with the given values.

2 - 1.42 / 2

0.58 / 2

0.29

Turn the decimal into a percentage.

0.29 * 100% = 29%

Therefore, there is a 29% decrease.

Best of Luck!

Serhud [2]

Hey there!

Answer:

B. 3x + 4 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that:

Perimeter of a rectangle: P = 2l + 2w

Given:

P = 8x + 8

w = x.

Plug the given information into the equation:

8x + 8 = 2l + 2x

Subtract 2x from both sides:

6x + 8 = 2l

Divide both sides by 2:

(6x + 8)/2 = 2l/2

3x + 4 = l.

Therefore, the length of the garden is:

l = 3x + 4 ft.

Which equation has a graph that passes through the points at (0,5) and (-3,-4)?
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

y = 3x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked the equation of the graph which passes through the points at (0,5) and (-3,-4).  

Now, we know that the equation of a straight line passing through the points (x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{2},y_{2}) is given by

\frac{y - y_{1}}{y_{1} - y_{2}} = \frac{x - x_{1}}{x_{1} - x_{2}}.

So, in our case (x_{1},y_{1}) ≡ (0,5) and (x_{2},y_{2}) ≡ (-3,-4)

Therefore, the equation of the straight line will be  

\frac{y - 5}{5 - (- 4)} = \frac{x - 0}{0 - (- 3)}

⇒ y - 5 = \frac{9}{3}x

⇒y = 3x + 5 (Answer)
