According to a recent survey, in 2000, 64% of households had one or more pets. throughout the next decade, this decreased by approximately 1% per year. if this trend continues, in which year will 30% of households have pets?

Year 2034

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2000, 64% had one or more pets

Since decreasing at 1% per year, we can say:

In 2001, 63%

In 2002, 62%

In 2003, 61%

In 2004, 60%

And so on

To go to 30% from 60% in 2004, we would need to decrease 60 - 30 = 30%, and that will occur after 30 more years. So that would be the year

2004 + 30 = 2034

So, year 2034

the 8 in 8,420 is in the thousands place so it's value is 8 thousand.

the 8 in 6,870 is in the hundreds place so it's value is 8 hundred.

divide 8000 by 800 to find the answer:

8000 / 800 = 10

the 8 in 8,420 is 10 times greater than the 8 in 6,870
