Answer:

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to find a percentage, you divide the part out of the whole (numerator out of the denominator in a fraction);

4 ÷ 8 = 0.5

Once you have your decimal number, you need to move the decimal point 2 spaces to the left to turn it into a percentage;

0.5 = 50

Therefore, the percent decrease is 50%.

What is the slope for this table?
sdas [7]
<h3>Answer:   Slope = -3</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

Pick any two rows you want. I'll pick the middle two rows where every value is positive. So I'll pick these two rows:

  • x = 0 and y = 4
  • x = 1 and y = 1

They lead to the points (0,4) and (1,1). Apply the slope formula for these rows.

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (1-4)/(1-0)

m = -3/1

m = -3

The slope is -3
