Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Find the volume of separate cuboids</u> :
<u>Volume (top cuboid)</u> :
⇒ V = 2 x 6 x (10 - 2)
⇒ V = 12 x 8
⇒ V = 96 cm²
<u>Volume (lower cuboid)</u> :
⇒ V = 8 x 6 x 2
⇒ V = 48 x 2
⇒ V = 96 cm²
<u>Volume (prism)</u> :
⇒ 96 + 96
⇒ 192 cm²
This is a round robin style tournament. Given that there are 25 people, and order doesn't matter meaning that the combination AB is equivalent to BA you must use the choose formula.
Thus the answer should be 25C2 or
<em>25! / [(25-2)! * 2!] = 300</em>
Ok, so you are given the value of P=q+2
The substitution method tells us that we must insert the value we know, into the second equation, 4P+3q= -27
Doing so will give us 4(q+2)+3q= -27
For right now, lets just focus on the first part, 4(q+2)
We can simplify this by distributing(multiplying) the 4 to whats inside the variables.
This will give us 4q+8
now lets add this back to the rest of the equation >>> 4q+8+3q = -27
We can further simplify by adding like terms >>> 7q+8 = -27
subtract the 8 from both sides >>> 7q = -35
now divide both sides by 7 >>> q = -35/7
Therefor q = -5
EDIT*
now that we know q = -5 we can put q into the equation for P !
we know that p=q+2
so lets put q in now >>> p=(-5)+2
and simplify>>> p = -3
I hope this helps:)
Percent increase/decrease is:
(Change/original amount)x100
(.25/2.35)x100= 10.6%
Your answer will be t = -3P/2Pr + A/4Pr. :)
