Answer:

14.4% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the formula for finding the percentage of decrease:

(starting value - final value) / starting value * 100.

So for your question,

\frac{5289-4530}{5289} =.0144\\.0144 * 100 = 14.4\\/

There was a 14.4% decrease within 50 years.

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

48.5cm^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

This shape is actually just a rectangle with a missing triangle. We can first find the area of the rectangle with 7*8=56 and subtract the triangle.

Area of missing triangle = \frac{1}{2} *b*h (b is the base and h is the height)

Base = 8-3=5

Height = 7-4=3

Area of missing triangle = \frac{1}{2} *5*3=7.5

Area of the figure: 56-7.5=48.5

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Alternatively, you can find the area of each individual shape and add them all up.

Area of the rectangle: 8*4=32

Area of square: (7-4)*3=9

Area of triangle: \frac{1}{2} *(8-3)*(7-4)=\frac{1}{2} *5*3=7.5

Total Area: 32+9+7.5=48.5
