We can automatically see that we are dealing with a percent decrease because we are going from a smaller to a bigger number. We need to first find what percent of 140the number 84 is. to do this we can set up the following equation:
140/84=100/x (this equation is basically saying if 140 is 100(%) what would 84 be?)
solving for x here gives us x = (84 X 100)/140 = 60, so 84 is 60 percent of 140 which means 140 decreased by 40 percent.
Let me know if I can clear anything else up.
Answer:
A. Draw a line from the segment to any point on the fold line.
Step-by-step explanation:
When using the paper folding method to find the midpoint of a line segment we take the following steps:
- Draw a line segment on the tracing paper
- Fold the tracing paper so that the endpoints lie on top of each other
- Mark the intersection of the fold and the segment with a point
These steps include statements B, C, and D. Drawing a line from the segment to any point on the fold line, which is statement A, is not included in these steps because it is not needed.
Thus, choice A is not a step in using paper folding to find the midpoint of a line segment.
