Here, to find the average rate of change, you would simply divide 270 by 63. And when that is done, you would get a long decimal. 4.285714285714286
And since you obviously can't put in such a long decimal as your answer, you would round it instead. Once rounded, you would end up with 4.29 (because the number after 8 is five, which rounds up, which would turn the 8 to 9.)
Yes the left states your reasoning
Your answer is 1,024. Hope this helps!
Work:
-4 x 8 = -32
-32 x -32 = 1,024
30% can also be written as .3, which is easier to use in this case.
To find how many just sat around, multiply the number of people by the percentage of how many just sat around.
1400*.3=420
