The perimeter of a rectangle is 68 ft.

1 answer:

5 0

Let the length be 9x and the width = 8x
Perimeter = 2(l + w) = 2(9x + 8x) = 2(17x) = 34x = 68
x = 68/34 = 2
9x = 9(2) = 18 ft
8x = 8(2) = 16 ft
Therefore, dimensions are 18 ft by 16ft

Find the percent of increase or decrease? 2.5y to 1.5y

horsena [70]

Answer:

From 2.5 y to 1.5 y there is a 40 % DECREASE in the value.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the initial value = 2.5 y

The final value of 1.5 y

Now,as Final Value < Initial Value

So, there is a DECREASE IN THE VALUE.

Now, decrease in the value = Initial value - Final Value

= 2.5 y = 1.5 y = 1 y

or, there is a decrease of ( 1 y) in the given value.

Now, Percentage decrease in the value is given as:

$\textrm{Percentage Decrease} = \frac{\textrm{The decrease in the value}}{\textrm{The initial Value}} \times 100\\ = \frac{1 y}{2.5 y} \times 100 = 40$

or, Percentage Decrease = 40%

Hence, from 2.5y to 1.5y there is a 40 % DECREASE in the value.
