Answer:

D)Increase the height so that the slant height quadruples.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a cone undergoes changes in height or radius or slant height.

We have to find which change will quadruple the lateral surface area of cone.

Lateral surface area of cone = $\pi r l$

Thus depends on radius and slant height

Let us check one by one options

A) When radius quadruples by increasing slant height we find lateral SA

will change more than quadruples because of change of slant height. Hence wrong.

B) When we quadruple the height 4 times, slant height will not be quadrupled exactly hence option is wrong.

C) If both radius and height are quadrupled then LSA will become 16 times the original hence false.

D) When we increase the height so that slant height quadruples, then radius will be the same, thus making LSA = 4 times the original

Option D is right.

If poaching reduces the population of an endangered animal by 6% and the criteria of population extinction is 20 with present population 1500 then it will take 3.62 years to reach to the mark of extinction.

Given Poaching reduces the population of endangered animals by 6% per year. The criteria of population extinction is 20. Present population being 1500.

Number of years taken by the population of endangered animals to reach to 20 mark can be calculated as under:

20=1500* $(1-0.06)^{n}$
