A)
Increase %= (new # - old #)/old * 100
new= 8
old= 5

Increase %= (8-5)/5 * 100
=3/5 * 100
=0.60 * 100
=60% increase

B)
Decrease %= (old # - new #)/old * 100
new= 5
old= 8

Decrease %= (8-5)/8 * 100
= 3/8 * 100
= 0.375 * 100
= 37.5% decrease


ANSWER: a) 60% increase; b) 37.5% decrease

Hope this helps! :) Good luck on your test!!

What is the answer 0,12km² a m² show work
seraphim [82]

Answer:

120 000 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

I ASSUME you're being asked to convert from km^2 to m^2.

For this you need to identify the conversion rate, which is 1 000 000 m^2 / 1 km ^2. Multiply by the thing you're converting from and cancel the units.

(1 000 000 m^2 / 1 km ^2) x 0,12 km^2 = 120 000 m^2 (the km^2 cancels out, leaving you only with your target unit of m^2)

dexar [7]
Recall that the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is: 2Length+2Width
With this in mind, we have that the original design is 96×60, where 90 is length and 60 is width, so it would simply be:
2(96+l) + 2 (60+w) = New Perimeter
Or simplified, it'd be:
2l + 2w + 312 = New Perimeter
