Answer:
40% decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's find the value decrease of the item from yesterday to today
$65 - $39 = $26
That means that $65 was 100% of the price and decreasing it by 26 gets us to 39
We need to find the percentage of 39 in 65
39/65 = 0.6 or 60%
If 39 is 60% of 65, then there was a 40% decrease form 100%
To check we can calculate the percentage of 26 in 65:
26/65 = 40%
There was a 40% decrease

.08 cents per ounce, because 2.40 ÷30 =.08
#9 the sum of two angles is 90 degrees, creating a right angle.
#10 the sum of the two angles is 180 because the form a supplementary angle
Ok so it's a proportion so this fraction is to this fraction. the smaller rectangle has sides 4 and 12. the larger one has 8 and x. so u set it up 4/12=8/x. the 4 and 8 r both the short sides so u want those on top and 12 and x r long sides so those on bottom. since that is not an answer option u can set it up as 8/4=x/12 because u still keep the variables of the same rectangle from being multipled with each other. so answer #2 is correct
