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

Which choices are equivalent to the exponential expression below? check all that apply. (2/3)^3
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

B. (2/3) x (2/3) x (2/3)

C. 8/27

D. 2^3 /3^3

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to know the following property

\LARGE \left(\frac{a}{b} \right)^c = \frac{a^c}{b^c}

Exponent also means you're multiplying the same number for an 'n' number of times.

For example, 2^3 = 2 * 2 * 2

we multiply it by itself 3 times since 3 is the exponent.

x^y

x is the base, y is the exponent

we read it as x to the power of y

If the exponent is 2, we say it as x squared

If the exponent is 3, we say it as x cubed

The ratio of the measures of the sides of a triangle is 9:15:5. If the perimeter of the triangle is 130 feet, find the measures
Alex Ar [27]
5x + 9x +15x = 130
29x = 130
x = <span> <span> <span> 4.4827586207 </span> </span> </span>
So the triangle sides =
<span> <span> <span> 22.4137931034 </span> </span> </span>
<span> <span> <span> 40.3448275862 </span> </span> </span>
