area is 36...............
Answer:
20%
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the percent decrease, we do old number subtracted from the new numbers over old.
We do
40 - 32 = 8
Then we put the 8 over the old and get
8/40
In percentage form it would be 20%
The number in the parentheses is the rate of change. Because this number is less than 1 it is a decrease, so it is a decay.
The percent decrease is 1 - 0.63 = 0.37 = 37% decrease
