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>

Find a &amp; b if the point p(6,4)&amp;q(2,3) lie on the graph of ax+by=20
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

a = - 2 , b = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the points p and q lie on the graph then they satisfy the equation

(6, 4 ) , substitute x = 6 , y = 4 into the equation

6a + 4b = 20 → (1)

(2, 3 ) , substitute x = 2, y = 3 into the equation

2a + 3b = 20 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by - 3 and adding to (1) will eliminate a

- 6a - 9b = - 60 → (3)

add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate a

0 - 5b = - 40

- 5b = - 40 ( divide both sides by - 5 )

b = 8

Substitute b = 8 into either of the 2 equations and solve for a

Substituting into (1)

6a + 4(8) = 20

6a + 32 = 20 ( subtract 32 from both sides )

6a = - 12 ( divide both sides by 6 )

a = - 2

siniylev [52]
Answer: C (4,7)

Points are labeled as (x,y)

If the unknown point is 4 units away from the origin on the x axis, x will be 4

If the unknown point is 7 units away from the origin on the y axis, y will be 7

Therefore (4,7)

Work out the circumference of a circle with radius 6.5cm
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

circumference=13π cm (see below if you need π approximated)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

The formula for the circumference of a circle is given as 2πr, where r is the radius and π is pi

we are given that the radius of the circle is 6.5 cm

substitute what we know into the equation:

circumference=2πr

circumference=2π*6.5

circumference=13π cm

some places will accept the answer as 13π, but others ask to have π substituted, usually as 3.14 or 22/7

if you need π substituted as 3.14, the answer will be 40.82 cm

if you need π substituted as 22/7, the answer will be about 40.86 cm

Hope this helps! :)
