Answer:

80% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

Find out how much percent each candy is worth:

100/15 = 6.67%

Find out how many pieces she gave away:

15 - 3 = 12

Multiply the pieces gave away by the percent per piece:

12 x 6.67 = 80.04

Round to the nearest whole number.

When using a calculator for 100/15 and then multiply by 12 you get exactly 80.

Which graph represents the solution set to this system of equations? –x + 2y = 6 and 4x + y = 3 On a coordinate plane, a line go
erastova [34]

Answer:

On a coordinate plane, a line goes through (0, 3) and (2, 4) and another line goes through (0, 3) and (0.75, 0).

This answer almost coincide with option C. I suppose there was a mistype.

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations is formed by:

–x + 2y = 6

4x + y = 3

In the picture attached, the solution set is shown.

The first equation goes through (0, 3) and (2, 4), as can be checked by:

–(0) + 2(3) = 6

–(2) + 2(4) = 6

The second goes through (0, 3) and (0.75, 0), as can be checked by:

4(0) + (3) = 3

4(0.75) + (0) = 3
