Answer:

40%

Explanation:

To find the percent decrease, use the formula

% decrease = (amount of decrease)/(original amount)

The amount of decrease in the pumpkin is

6.5 - 3.9 = 2.6

The original amount is 6.5.

This gives us 2.6/6.5 = 0.4 = 40%

6.5kg - 3.9kg = 2.6 kg (decrease)
decrease/original = 2.6 / 6.5 = 2/5 = 40%

Ans: 40%

How do you factor 1/4(-16x+8)?​
Nikitich [7]
We know that we can take 4 out of (-16x + 8) [ we know this because we can divide 16 by 4 ( to get 4 ) and we can divide 8 by 4 ( to get 2 ) ]

we can factor out a 4 then from the parentheses to get 4(-4x + 2), but since we are multiplying by 1/4 we get

1/4(4)(-4x + 2), and since 1/4 * 4 = 1, our final answer is

-4x + 2

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer: M(5,2)

The endpoints of CD are given as C(3,−5) and D(7, 9).

We substitute these values to get:

Therefore the coordinates of the midpoint M of CD are (5,2) and if i'm not good at explaining here ya go :)
