The line graph below shows the number of stray dogs in a certain city for the years listed
the bar graph shows the years
in
1998 5 stray dogs
1999 2 stray dogs
2000 6 stray dogs
2002 8 stray dogs
2003 9 stray dogs
Between which two years did the greatest decrease in stray dogs occur?
looking at the line graph the only decrease i seen was from 1998 to 1999 and from 2002 to 2003 which two years do i put down how do i figure out the amount of decrease
There is no decrease in 2002 to 2003.
i am sorry the 2003 was 4 stray dogs
The greatest decrease was from 8 dogs to 4 dogs. Now the greatest percent decrease was in the 98 to 99 years. I have no idea which one is wanted.
To determine between which two years the greatest decrease in stray dogs occurred, you'll need to compare the number of stray dogs in each year.
Looking at the given data, we have:
1998: 5 stray dogs
1999: 2 stray dogs
2000: 6 stray dogs
2002: 8 stray dogs
2003: 4 stray dogs
To find the greatest decrease, we can calculate the difference between the number of dogs in consecutive years.
- The decrease from 1998 to 1999 is 5 - 2 = 3 dogs.
- The decrease from 2002 to 2003 is 8 - 4 = 4 dogs.
Hence, the greatest decrease in the number of stray dogs occurred between the years 2002 and 2003, with a decrease of 4 dogs.
