The # of meals decreased by a total of 120 - 52 = 68 meals. Now in order to find the percent decrease, you must find what total percent 68 is out of 120. 

68/120 = x/100, this ratio will give you the percent that 68 is out of 120 if you solve for x. 

Using inverse operations you get:

6800 = 120x

x = 56.7% when rounded. Meaning that the total percent decrease was about 56.7

Suppose that a family wants to increase the size of the garden which is currently 16 feet long and 8 feet wide without changing
Cloud [144]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Sides of the garden</u>

  • 16 feet and 8 feet

<u>New dimensions of the garden</u>

  • 16 + 2x and 8 + x

<u>1. The area of the new garden</u>

  • (16 + 2x)(8 + x) =
  • 2x^2 + 32x + 128

<u>2. The difference in area </u>

  • 2x^2 + 32x + 128 - 16*8 =
  • 2x^2 + 32x

<u>3. x= 2 effect on the area</u>

  • 2*2^2 + 32*2 =
  • 8 + 64 =
  • 72 ft²

<u>4. Area difference = 160</u>

  • 2x^2 + 32x = 160
  • x^2 + 16x - 80 = 0
  • Solving we get positive root of 4 ft

<u>5. Area difference = 4 times</u>

  • 2x^2 + 32x = 128*3
  • 2x^2 + 32x - 384 = 0
  • x^2 + 16x - 192= 0
  • Solving we get positive root of 8 ft

PLSS HELP 20 POINTS!! Will mark branliest plssss
Sedbober [7]

Answer: the answer is 16

Step-by-step- explanation:

Since the two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third we can take the sum of two smallest sides and add them together to equal 92. Meaning the length of the longest side MUST BE 91 feet so the amount of the remaining rope would equal to 107-91 and that’s where we get 16
