So what I did was I wrote down the problem 50 - 10x = 20.
The first step I did was take 50 and subtract it from both sides: 50 - 10x = 20
-50 -50
After that i cross out the so 50's and take 20 and subtract it to 50 which gave me -30. So when you write this down you rewrite it as: -10x = -30
Last step: take the -10 and divide it by both sides the cross out the two -10's cause it's going to be written as -30/-10 which would give you x = 3. So there is your answer, hope this helps. :)

Answer:
<h2><em>The percent decrease is approximately 40%. </em></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
initial count of fish= 850
final count of fish= 500
Required
% decrease
Step two:
% decrease= final-initial/initial*100
substitute
% decrease= 850-500/850*100
% decrease=350/850*100
% decrease= 0.41*100
% decrease= 40.1%
<em>The percent decrease is approximately 40%. </em>
