We can automatically see that we are dealing with a percent decrease because we are going from a smaller to a bigger number. We need to first find what percent of 140the number 84 is. to do this we can set up the following equation:
140/84=100/x (this equation is basically saying if 140 is 100(%) what would 84 be?)
solving for x here gives us x = (84 X 100)/140 = 60, so 84 is 60 percent of 140 which means 140 decreased by 40 percent.
Let me know if I can clear anything else up.

i just got this question
Answer:
B: y = -2/3x - 10/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The point is at (-2,-2), therefore when you input -2 into the desired equation, it should yield -2 as our output. If we use the equation B, the equation becomes
-4/3 - 10/3 which is -6/3. After dividing it we get -2 as the output.
To find the line yourself we use the point slope formula
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
The line is parallel to the one on the graph so the slope or <em>m</em> is equal to -2/3
We input the coordinates we want for y1 and x1.
y - (-2) = -2/3 (x - (-2))
y + 2 = -2/3x - 4/3
y + 6/3 = -2/3x - 4/3
y = -2/3x - 10/3
(8/16) would be the slope
25/250 = 1/10
I do not know that much english. I an spanish so I might have done it wrong.
