Let the original profits be $x. 5% increase in profits will give us:
105/100×x=$1.05x
3% reduction in new profits ill give us the latest amount to be:
97/100×1.05x
=$1.0185x
comparing our new profits to our original amount of $x we shall have new percentage increase to be:
(1.0185x-x)/x×100
=1.85% 
Thus our final increase  1.85%

The diameter of a sphere is 16 cm. What is the sphere's volume? Round to the nearest tenth.
ohaa [14]

Answer:

V ≈ 2144.70 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Radius is going to be used instead of the diameter. Half of 16 is 8, and so that will be the value that shall be used.

V = (4/3)\pi (8)^3

V ≈ 2144.66 cm^3

V ≈ 2144.70 cm^3
