What is the approximate percent decrease when a fish count goes down from 850 to 500?

8 0

To get this, you divide the smaller number by the larger one and get 0.5882... 500 is about 59% of 850, so to find the percent lost, you subtract that from 100 to get 41% decrease

If $y=3x^2+30x+71$ , then
$y=3(x^2+10x)+71=3(x^2+2\cdot5x+25-25)+71$
$y=3((x+5)^2-25)+71=3(x+5)^2-75+71=3(x+5)^2-4$ . So, in the first gap you can write 5 and in the second you can write -4.
Since $(x+5)^2\ge 0$ , the minimum value of y is when $(x+5)^2=0$ . The solution of the last equation is x=-5 and then y=-4 -- these are numbers, which you can write in the third and fourth gaps.
