last year a community had 32 incidents of vandalism. this year they had 23 incidents of vandalism. what was the percent of decrease rounded to the nearest percent?

Step-by-step explanation:

Clue 1 :

"Percent of Decrease" = ( Final Number - Initial Number ) expressed as a percentage of the Initial Number

Clue 2 :

number X expressed as a percentage of Number Y = (X/Y) x 100 %

Good luck!

a) y = -3x +2

b) y = 1/2x -6

these 2 can be combined into one equation.

-3x +2 = .5x -6

8 = 3.5x

x = 8 / 3.5 = 2.2857142857

y = -3 * (8 / 3.5) +2

y = (-24 / 3.5) + 2

y = -4.8571428571
