Answer: A. divided the difference of the two quantities by the sum of the two quantities.
===================================================
Explanation:
The difference of the quantities is 20-15 = 5
The sum of the quantities is 20+15 = 35
Dividing those results leads to 5/35 = 0.142857 which rounds to 0.1429
That converts to 14.29%
This is likely the path Adam took. This path is incorrect. The correct steps are shown below
---------------------
Difference = 20-15 = 5
Divide the difference over the original quantity
5/20 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%
We have a 25% decrease because the new quantity (15) is smaller than the old quantity (20)
----------------------
Here's another way to approach the problem
A = old value = 20
B = new value = 15
C = percent change
C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%
C = [ (15-20)/20 ] * 100%
C = (-5/20)*100%
C = -0.25*100%
C = -25%
The negative C value means we have a negative percent change, ie we have a percent decrease. So this is another way to get a 25% decrease.
Answer:
∫₀² ln(x²) dx
Step-by-step explanation:
An integral is an improper integral if one or both endpoints is infinity, if the function is undefined at one or both endpoints, or if the function is discontinuous between the endpoints.
ln(x²) is undefined at x = 0.
The formula to find the surface area of a sphere is A=4(3.14)r². So if you plug in the data you would get,
A=4(3.14)4²
A=(12.56) (16)
A=200.96
