The original volume equation looks like this: V = 1/3 * h * (x^2)
After the side is reduced by 0.002, the new volume would look like V1 = 1/3 * h
* (x-0.002) ^ 2
Then we have:
V-V1 = 1/3*h*(x^2) - 1/3*h*(x – 0.002) ^2
= 1/3 * h *(x^2 - (x – 0.002) ^2)
= 1/3 * h * (0.004x - 0.00004)
The rate of decreasing is computed by:
(V-V1)/V * 100% = [1/3 * h *(0.004x - 0.00004)] / [1/3 * h * (x ^ 2)] *
100% this would be equal to (0.004x - 0.00004) / (x^2) * 100%
So replace x by 200, you’ll get:
(0.004(200) - 0.00004) / (200^2) * 100%
= 0.001999% is the rate of decreasing.
Horizontal line is y=, because every point along that horizontal line will have the same y value. So, now look at the point and notice that the y value is 5. So the horizontal line with a y value of 5 is y=5. Thus the answer is f.

Answer: 1/6</h3>
====================================================
Explanation:
Let's say for example this pizza had 6 slices to start with. Two-thirds of this is (2/3)*12 = 4 slices. So you have 4 slices left over from yesterday. Then let's say you hand one slice to each of your four friends. Each friend would have 1/6 of the original pizza.
