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.

Which transformations are needed to change the parent some function to the sine function below?
Marrrta [24]
Beginning with the function y = sin x, which would have range from -1 to 1 and period of 2pi:
Vertical compression of 1/2 compresses the range from -1/2 to 1/2
Phase shift of pi/2 to the left
Horizontal stretch to a period of 4pi, as the crests are at -4pi, 0, 4pi
Vertical shift of 1 unit up moves the range to 1/2 to 3/2
So the first choice looks like a good answer.
