Answer:
A. 25%
Step-by-step explanation:
If you multiply something by 0.75, you're multiplying it by 75%, and that means you're losing 25% each time, so the rate of decay is 25%
 
        
                    
             
        
        
        
Answer:
D) Distributive property
Step-by-step explanation:
We use distributive property because the 8 is distributed to the 7 and the negative three (it is negative because the expression can also be written as 8(7 + -3). This is how it will look after the distributing:
56 + -24

Step-by-step explanation:
2/7
2×2 = 4
___
7×2 = 14
2×3 = 6
___
7×3 = 21
2×4 = 8
___
7×4 = 12
 
        
             
        
        
        
1. When you estimate, it is not an exact measurement. 3ft 8 in gets rounded to 4ft and 12 ft 3 in rounds to 12ft. now find the perimeter. P=2l+2w P= 2*12 +2*4 P=32feet
2. 3ft 8in = 3 8/12 or reduced to 3 2/3  12ft 3in = 12 3/12 or reduced to 12 1/4   The fractional part is referring to a fraction of a foot. 
3. The perimeter of the room is P=2l+2w or P=2(12 1/4) + 2(3 2/3) p=24 1/2 + 7 1/3  P= 31 5/6 feet
4. The estimate and the actual are very close. They are 1/6 of a foot apart.
5a. Total baseboard 31 5/6ft - 2 1/4 ft = 29 7/12 feet needed.
5b. Take the total and divide it by 8ft  = 29 7/12 divided by 8= 3.7  You are not buying a fraction of a board so you would need 4 boards.
