Okie, so percent decrease is the amount loss divided by the original number and multiplied by 100 to find the percent. This is because you are finding the amount loss in terms of the total amount - percent basically.
The amount loss : 4 feet
4 feet/ 12 feet = .3333 (ratio of how much cut) multiply by 100 --> 33.3% decrease. From 12 feet to 8 feet is a 33.3 % decrease. I hope this helps :-)

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

the pair of equations y = 3, z = 7 represent the intersection of two plans, The set of points is (0,3,7) and the line is parallel to x axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided equation.

y=3 represents a vertical plane which is in xy plane.

Z=7 represents a horizontal plane which is parallel to xy plane

The both planes are perpendicular to each other and intersect.

y=3 and z=7 is the intersection of two plans, where the value of x is zero y=3 and z=7.

The set of points is (0,3,7) and the line is parallel to x axis.

answer:

x =  - 2 \\ y = 2 \\  \\ ( - 2, \: 2)

explanation:

y =  -  \frac{1}{2} x + 1 \\ y = 2x + 6 \\ first \: equation \: add \:  \frac{1}{2} from \: both  \\  sides \\   \\ second \: equation \: subtract \: 2x \: from  \\  both \: sides \\  \\ y +  \frac{1}{2} x = 1 \\ y - 2x = 6 \\ solve \: the \: first \: equation \\  \\ y +  \frac{1}{2} x = 1 \\ subtract \:  \frac{x}{2} from \: both \: sides \\  \\ y =  -  \frac{1}{2} x + 1 \\ substitute \:  -  \frac{x}{2}  + 1 \: for \: y \: in \: the  \\ other \: equation \\  \\  -  \frac{1}{2} x + 1 - 2x = 6 \\ add \:   \frac{1}{2} x \: to \: 2x \\  \\  -  \frac{5}{2} x + 1 = 6 \\ subtract \: 1 \: from \: both \: sides \\  \\  -  \frac{5}{2} x = 5 \\ divide \: both \: sides \: by \:  -  \frac{5}{2}  \\  \\ x =  - 2 \\ substitute \: the \: value \: of \: x \: into \\ an \: equation \\  \\ y =  -  \frac{1}{2} ( - 2) + 1 \\ distribute \\  \\ y = 1 + 1 \\ add  \\  \\ y = 2 \\  \\ ( - 2, \: 2)
