35 percent got eaten.
To solve: you’d take the number of flowers eaten, 7. And you’d divide it by the overall number, 20. Then you’d get 0.35, which would be your percent.
Answer:
12% decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the percent decrease, take the original amount and subtract the new amount
650-572=78
Divide this amount by the original amount
78/650 =.12
Multiply by 100
.12*100 = 12
Add the percent symbol
12% decrease

Answer: x < 8/9
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is 4 * (2x +1) * 4.5 = 50, since the volume is found by multiplying the length, width, and height together, and the =50 part is because our volume can't go above 50 cubic units.
We can simplify 4 * (2x+1) * 4.5 by multiplying 4 and 4.5, which is 18, and then multiplying both 2x and 1 by 18. We get 36x + 18, and we put in the =50, so it is 36x+18=50.
Next, we can subtract 18 from both sides of the equation, giving us 36x = 32.
We then divide the equation by 36 so that we have the x by itself, and we get x = 32/36, which can be simplified to 8/9.
What we're left with is x = 8/9, meaning plugging in 8/9 for the equation would give us 50. However the problem says that the volume must be below 50, so our actual answer is x < 8/9.
