20% Subtract starting value minus final value.
Divide that amount by the absolute value of the starting value.
Multiply by 100 to get percent decrease.
If the percentage is negative, it means there was an increase and not an decrease.

You are installing new carpeting in a family room. The room is rectangular with dimensions 2012feet × 1318feet . You intend to i
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer: 1. When you estimate, it is not an exact measurement. 3ft 8 in gets rounded to 4ft and 12 ft 3 in rounds to 12ft. now find the perimeter. P=2l+2w P= 2*12 +2*4 P=32feet

2. 3ft 8in = 3 8/12 or reduced to 3 2/3  12ft 3in = 12 3/12 or reduced to 12 1/4   The fractional part is referring to a fraction of a foot.

3. The perimeter of the room is P=2l+2w or P=2(12 1/4) + 2(3 2/3) p=24 1/2 + 7 1/3  P= 31 5/6 feet

4. The estimate and the actual are very close. They are 1/6 of a foot apart.

5a. Total baseboard 31 5/6ft - 2 1/4 ft = 29 7/12 feet needed.

5b. Take the total and divide it by 8ft  = 29 7/12 divided by 8= 3.7  You are not buying a fraction of a board so you would need 4 boards.

Solve −3x2 − 4x − 4 = 0
kkurt [141]
This is a quadratic formula with a general form of a²x + bx + c = 0. For quadratic equations, we can solve for its two roots using the quadratic formula shown in the attached picture.

a = -3
b = -4
c = -4

x = [-(-4) + √(-4)² - 4(-3)(-4)]/2(-3) = <em>2 + √-32/2</em>
x = [-(-4) - √(-4)² - 4(-3)(-4)]/2(-3) =<em> 2 - √-32/2</em>
