Answer:
Using the percentage difference formula you can find the percentage decrease.
SO its
100(new-old/new)
So we solve
10-6=4
4/10= 2/5
2/5*100=200/5
40
40 percent decrease
You will pay $292.5 for a item with original price of $390 when discounted 25%. In this example, if you buy an item at $390 with 25% discount, you will pay 390 - 97.5 = 292.5 dollars
Really
just calculate the slope
slope is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
for x=0, y=1
for x=1, y=3
slope=(y1-y1)/(x-x1)=(3-1)/(1-0)=2/1=2
answer is 2
<span>Divide the tape diagram into 4, put 0 at the left end, and 24 at the right end. 1/4 of 24 is 6, 2/4 of 24 is 12, and 3/4 of 24 is 18.
I hope that helped if it didn't sorry ~Emily~
