300000-50000=250000
...................
Percent decrease { (original number - new number) / original number....x 100
percent decrease : (75 - 25) / 75....x 100
50 / 75...x 100
0.666 x 100
66.6% decrease <==not sure if u need it rounded ?
Answer:
a) 19/15 b) 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
in both the question I reduced the numbers with 5
"Jake can mulch a garden in 30 minutes." So, for 1 min Jake can mulch 1/30 part of a garden.
Ross can mulch the park for x minutes. So, for 1 min Jake can mulch 1/x part of a garden.
If they work together, for 1 min they will mulch (1/30 + 1/x) part of the garden.
At the same time, we know, that of they work together they can mulch the garden in 16 min, so for 1 min they will mulch 1/16 part of the garden.
Now, we can write an equation

x≈34.3 (min)
Answer:
y=-2(x+2)
Step-by-step explanation:
plug in(-2,0) into y-y1=m(x-x1)
y=m(x+2)
slope =m=-2
y=-2(x+2)
