Answer:

decrease by 2.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: P% * X = Y.

P is 10%, X is 150, so the equation is 10% * 150 = Y.

Convert 10% to a decimal by removing the percent sign and dividing by 100: 10/100 = 0.10.

Two squares are similar. The

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The perimeter of the second square is 36 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent the sides of the squares with S1 and S2.

So:

$S_1:S_2 = 1 : 3$ --- Scale factor

$P_1 =12$ --- perimeter of the first

Required

Calculate P2, the perimeter of the second

Represent the ratios of the perimeter:

$Scale = P_1 : P_2$

Substitute 12 for P1

$Scale = 12 : P_2$

Equate both scale factors

$12 : P_2 = 1:3$

Convert to fraction

$\frac{12}{P_2} = \frac{1}{3}$

Cross multiply

$P_2 = 12 * 3$

$P_2 = 36$

Find the slope rise/run

Sloan [31]

Answer:

m = -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Find two points in order to calculate slope:

(0, 2)
(3, 1)

Slope (m) =

ΔY /ΔX= -1/ 3= -0.33333333333333

( ΔX = 3 – 0 = 3
ΔY = 1 – 2 = -1 )

Slope intercept:

y = -0.33333333333333x + 2
