Answer:
40% decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's find the value decrease of the item from yesterday to today
$65 - $39 = $26
That means that $65 was 100% of the price and decreasing it by 26 gets us to 39
We need to find the percentage of 39 in 65
39/65 = 0.6 or 60%
If 39 is 60% of 65, then there was a 40% decrease form 100%
To check we can calculate the percentage of 26 in 65:
26/65 = 40%
There was a 40% decrease

To find the area of a rectangle, multiple the width by the length.
(And simply the fractions for a simpler equation)
For piece A:
The length 1 and 3/5 can be turned into an improper fraction by multiplying 1 by the denominator (5) and adding it to the numerator (3). 1 and 3/5 = 8/5
(3/4) • (8/5) = area
Multiple the numerators with each other and the denominators with each other (3 times 8 = 24) (4 times 5 = 20)
The area of piece A is 24/20
If you do the same for piece B:
(2/5) • (21/8) = area
The answer is 42/40

Answer: y>(1/3)x-3
Step-by-step explanation: The slope is 1/3. The dotted line means it is not inclusive, and the value of k means it is going down three units.
