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%.

liberstina [14]
The dragons would have to speed up to balance out the time that they slowed down.

The instantaneous rates of changes are all the individual speeds at given times. If you have some that are slow, you will need to have just as many that are fast to balance it out and ensure they have the correct average speed.

A=?<br> B=?<br> ({[correct answer marked BRAINLIEST]})
Alinara [238K]

Step-by-step explanation:

a= 16x+3-14x+15

combine like terms, 16x-14x= 2x

so,

2x+3+15,

15+3=18

18=2x, divide 18 by 2

x=9

b)  *open the parenthesis* -1/6 *24x = -4x

-1/6*60 = -10

-4x- (-10)= -4x+10

-4x+10+2x= -4x+2x= -2x

-2x=10 = 2x=-10 = x=-5

Cheers!
