Answer:

33.34%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The actual price of the shirt = $36

Price on sale = $24

We need to find the percent of the decrease. The formula for the percentage is given by :

\%=\dfrac{|\text{actual value-estimated value}|}{\text{actual value}}\times 100

Putting all the values,

\%=\dfrac{24-36}{36}\times 100\\\\=33.34\%

So, the percentage decrease in the price of the shirt is 33.34%.

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

The given statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

Circle graphs, or pie graphs, show information over a period of time.

This statement is false.

A circle graph, or a pie chart, helps in visualizing information and data. These graphs are used to show the results in a proportional manner.

The circle graph is divided in proportions that show the percentage of a certain answer.

Please I Really Need Help.The coordinate plane below represents a city. Points A through F are schools in the city.
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Part A) The system of inequalities is

x\geq2  and  y\geq2

Part B) In the procedure

Part C) The schools that Natalie is allowed to attend are A,B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: Using the graph above, create a system of inequalities that only contain points C and F in the overlapping shaded regions

we have

Points C(2,2), F(3,4)

The system of inequalities could be

x\geq2 -----> inequality A

The solution of the inequality A is the shaded area at the right of the solid line x=2

y\geq2 -----> inequality B

The solution of the inequality B is the shaded area above of the solid line y=2

see the attached figure N 1

Part B: Explain how to verify that the points C and F are solutions to the system of inequalities created in Part A

we know that

If a ordered pair is a solution of the system of inequalities, then the ordered pair must satisfy both inequalities

<em>Verify point C</em>

C(2,2)    

<em>Inequality A</em>

x\geq2 -----> 2\geq2 ----> is true

<em>Inequality B</em>

y\geq2 ------> 2\geq2 ----> is true

therefore

Point C is a solution of the system of inequalities

<em>Verify point D</em>

F(3,4)    

<em>Inequality A</em>

x\geq2 -----> 3\geq2 ----> is true

<em>Inequality B</em>

y\geq2 ------> 4\geq2 ----> is true

therefore

Point D is a solution of the system of inequalities

Part C: Natalie can only attend a school in her designated zone. Natalie's zone is defined by y < −2x + 2. Explain how you can identify the schools that Natalie is allowed to attend.

we have

y < -2x+2

The solution of the inequality is the shaded area below the dotted line y=-2x+2

The y-intercept of the dotted line is the point (0,2)

The x-intercept of the dotted line is the point (1,0)

To graph the inequality, plot the intercepts and shade the area below the dotted line

see the attached figure N 2

therefore

The schools that Natalie is allowed to attend are A,B and D
