Answer:

≈ 13.98%

Step-by-step explanation:

As the total population is 5769 in the initial period, you must find the percentage that repesents 4963 that is the expected population.

4963/5769=0.8602

Then you multiply it by 100 to transform it into percentage

0.8602*100=86.02%

Then it's just necesary to subtract that from 100% and that numbers is the percentage of decrease

100% - 86.02% = 13.98%

Also you can say that is approximately 14%

How to do proportional triangles

harina [27]

Answer: If the measures of the corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional then the triangles are similar. Likewise if the measures of two sides in one triangle are proportional to the corresponding sides in another triangle and the including angles are congruent then the triangles are similar.

Answer:

The answer could be A) or D) because the zero acts as a place holder. Its a little easier to derive it if you have a bigger decimal

<h3>Given:</h3><h3>Large cone:</h3>

r= 8 cm
h= 20 cm

<h3>Small cone:</h3>

r= 4 cm
h= 10cm

<h3>Note that:</h3>

r: radius
h: height

<h3>To find:</h3>

The volume of the frustum of the given cone.

<h3>Solution:</h3>

Frustum is a part of a cone formed by cutting off the top by a parallel plane.

$\large\boxed{Formula: V= \frac{1}{3}\pi{r}^{2}h}$

Let's solve!

First, let's find the volume of the smaller cone.

Substitute the values according to the

formula.

$V= \frac{1}{3}×\pi×{4}^{2}×10$

$V= 167.5516082 \: {cm}^{3}$

Now, we can round off to the nearest hundredth.

The value in the thousandths place is smaller than 5 so we won't have to round up.

$\boxed{V= 167.55 \: {cm}^{3}}$

Next, let's find the volume of the bigger cone.

Substitute the values according to the formula.

$V= \frac{1}{3}×\pi×{8}^{2}×20$

$V= 1340.412866 \: {cm}^{3}$

Now, we can round off to the nearest hundredth.

The value in thousandths place is smaller than 5 so we won't have to round up.

$\boxed{V=1340.41 \: {cm}^{3}}$

Now, we can find the volume of the frustum.

We'll have to minus the volume of the smaller cone from the bigger cone.

$V= 1340.41-167.55$

$\large\boxed{V= 1172.86 \: {cm}^{3}}$

<u>Hence, the volume of the frustum is 1172.86 cubic centimeters.</u>
