Given:

Last year 80 students signed up for a summer trip to Washington, D.C.

This summer 50 students have signed up to go.

To find:

The percent decrease in the number of students.

Solution:

We have,

Students in last year = 80

Students in this year = 50

Now,

\text{Decrease}\%=\dfrac{\text{Students in last year - Students in this year }}{\text{Students in last year }}\times 100

\text{Decrease}\%=\dfrac{80-50}{80}\times 100

\text{Decrease}\%=\dfrac{30}{80}\times 100

\text{Decrease}\%=\dfrac{3}{8}\times 100

\text{Decrease}\%=37.5

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If she can husk 8 in 24mins

⟩ 8 = 24

Let x = ears of corn in 33mins

x = 33

If less more divide

⟩ 24x = 8×33

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Answer</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em> </em><em>to find the base</em><em> to apply the Pythagoras </em><em>theorem.</em><em>.</em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>finding</em><em> </em><em>length</em><em>.</em><em>.</em>

<em>Hypotenuse²</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>Base²</em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>Height</em><em>²</em>

<em>So,</em>

<em>(</em><em>H</em><em>)</em><em>²</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>B)</em><em>²</em><em>+</em><em>(</em><em>H)</em><em>²</em>

<em>1</em><em>2</em><em>²</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>8</em><em>²</em><em>+</em><em>y²</em>

<em>1</em><em>4</em><em>4</em><em>-</em><em>6</em><em>4</em><em>=</em><em>y²</em>

<em>8</em><em>0</em><em>=</em><em>y²</em>

<em>√</em><em>8</em><em>0</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>y</em>

<em>√</em><em>2</em><em>×</em><em>2</em><em>×</em><em>2</em><em>×</em><em>2</em><em>×</em><em>5</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>y</em>

<em>2</em><em>×</em><em>2</em><em>√</em><em>5</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>y</em><em> </em><em> </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>take</em><em> </em><em>one</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>from</em><em> </em><em>each</em><em> </em><em>pair)</em>

<em>4</em><em>√</em><em>5</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>y</em>
