Answer:

24.6 % decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original temperature

Increase by 25%

x + .25x

1.25x

Decrease by 40%

The amount decreased is

(1.25x) *.40

.496x

Subtract that from 1.25x

1.25x - .496x

.754x

We need to find the percent decrease

1 - .754 = .246

24.6 % decrease

Answer:

Temperature decreased by 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let initial temperature be t

Step 1

<u>Increase by 25%:</u>

  • t + 25% = t + 0.25 t = 1.25 t

Step 2

<u>Decrease by 40%:</u>

  • 1.25 t  - 40% = 1.25 t - 0.4 * 1.25 t= 1.25 t - 0.5 t = 0.75 t

Temperature changed from t to 0.75 t

<u>The difference in %:</u>

  • 0.75 t - t = -0.25 t = 25% decrease

<u>Temperature decreased </u>by 25%

There are two ways for finding p, here is one way:

1/2 = 4p

Multiply both sides by 2:
1 = 8p

Divide both sides by 8:
0.125 = p

Answer:
p = 0.125

Hope it helped :)

Y=3x-8 using function notation
maria [59]

To write it in function notation you'll convert it into a function, substituting y by f(x):


y = 3x - 8 = f(x) = 3x - 8



Hope it helped,

Fill in the blanks below.
Crank
The slope for the first one would be:
y2-y1/x2-x1, so replace those with the coordinates and you'll get:
-3-1/-7-(-7) => -4/0 so I guess the slope is zero

the slope for the second one would be:
-3-(-3)/5-(-4)=> 0/9 I think this one would be undefined.
Check to make sure, though!
