Answer:

35%

Step-by-step explanation:

the percent decrease is calculated using

percent decrease = $\frac{decrease}{originalprice}$ × 100%

decrease = 280 - 182 = 98

percent decrease = $\frac{98}{280}$ × 100% = 35%

The length of a rectangle is 3 times the width. The perimeter is 44 cm. What are the dimensions of the rectangle? Write and solv

ser-zykov [4K]

Here are your equations:
x and 3x
How to set up:
2(x)+ 2(3x) = 44
Simplify:
8x = 44
Divide:
x = 5.5
Plug back in to find values:
Width = 5.5
Length = 16.5

Since the domain are the x-values of the function, we need to find the y-values using those x-values.
- for x= $\frac{1}{2}$ , $log x_{2} ( \frac{1}{2} )=-1$ . Now we have our first ordered pair: $( \frac{1}{2} ,-1)$
- for $x=1$ , $log_{2} (1)=0$ which gives us our next ordered pair: $(1,0)$
- for x=2, $log_{2} (2)=1$ , so (2,1)
- for x=4, $log_{2} (4)=2$ , so (4,2)
- for x=8, $log_{2} (8)=3$ , so our last order pair is (8,3)

Finally we can plug the points and joint them to create our graph:
