Answer:

<em>75%.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>8 - 100%</em>

<em>2 - x</em>

<em />\dfrac{8}{100 \%}=\dfrac{2}{x} \\\\x=\dfrac{2 \cdot 100 \%}{8} =25 \%<em />

<em>100% - 25% = 75% - the percent decrease.</em>

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

  • x = 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

Straight angle is equal to 180°

Angle x, 60° and 80° form a straight angle.

<u>Then we have following equation to solve for x:</u>

  • x + 60° + 80° = 180°
  • x + 140° = 180°
  • x = 180° - 140°
  • x = 40°

ivann1987 [24]
If you are talking about the area and perimeter of one of the triangular faces...
8 x 1.2 = 9.6
6 x 1.2 = 7.2

Perimeter = 9.6 + 7.2 + 7.2 = 24
Area = Linear Scale Factor²
1.2² = 1.44
7 x 1.44 = 10.08 (units)²

Find the midpoint of (-8,-10) and (8,0)
Allisa [31]

Answer:

(0,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

From -8 to 8 there are 16 numbers so you divide 16 by 2 which would be 8 and add that to -8 giving you 0

From -10 to 0 there are 10 numbers divided by 2 is 5 so you add 5 to -10 giving you -5

This makes your midpoint (0,-5)
