Answer:

15.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent decrease formula =

(Initial value - New value/Initial value) × 100

Initial value = 9200kg

New value = 7739.4kg

Percent decrease = (9200 - 7739.4/9200) × 100

Percent decrease = (1460.6/9200) × 100

Percent decrease = 15.8760869565%

Approximately = 15.9%

The percent of decrease in the amount of strawberries used annually is 15.9%

A,B and C are the vertices of one triangle.
dsp73

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The triangle with coordinate A(4,6), B(2,-2) and C(-2,-4). D is the mid point of AB and E is the mid point of AC.

To prove: DE is parallel to BC.

Construction: Join DE.

Proof: If we prove the basic proportionality theorem that is \frac{AD}{DB}=\frac{AE}{EC}, then it proves that DE is parallel to BC.

Now, Mid Point D has coordinates=(\frac{4+2}{2},\frac{6-2}{2})=(3,2) and Mid Point E has coordinates=(\frac{4-2}{2},\frac{6-4}{2})=(1,1)

Now, AD= \sqrt{(4-3)^{2}+(6-2)^{2}}=\sqrt{17}

DB=\sqrt{(3-2)^{2}+(2+2)^{2}}=\sqrt{17}

AE=\sqrt{(4-1)^{2}+(6-1)^{2}}=\sqrt{34}

EC=\sqrt{(1+2)^{2}+(1+4)^{2}}=\sqrt{34}

Now, \frac{AD}{DB}=\frac{AE}{EC}

=\frac{\sqrt{17}}{\sqrt{17}}=\frac{\sqrt{34}}{\sqrt{34}}=\frac{1}{1}

Hence, \frac{AD}{DB}=\frac{AE}{EC}

Thus, By basic proportionality theorem, DE is parallel to BC.
