Since it starts at 50 and goes to 35....it is a decrease since the amount is going down, or getting smaller. To find the percent, first find the difference 50-35 = 15; then divide by the initial amount of 50. So, 15/50 = 0.3, and then convert that to a percent by multiplying by 100. Therefore the percent decrease is 30%

Answer:

okay so im not sure which is being round so i'll do both

if you are going to round the miles and gallons:

278.2 to 278 because the decimal is below 0.5

19.6 to 20 because the decimal is above 0.5

278/20 = 13.9 which you would round to 14 because the decimal is above 0.5

if you are only going to round the answer:

278.2/19.6 = 14.193877551 which you would round to 14 because the decimal is below 0.5

so regardless of what you do, <u> your answer will be 14</u>

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is $\pi r^2 h$ , where r is the radius of the base and h is the height of the cylinder.

$\pi \cdot 3.25^2 \cdot 10=105.625\pi \text{ cm}^3$

Therefore, the correct answer is choice B. Hope this helps!

Answer:

$-10+i\sqrt{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

One is given the following expression:

$\sqrt{4}-\sqrt{-98}-\sqrt{144}+\sqrt{-128}$

In order to simplify and solve this problem, one must keep the following points in mind: the square root function ( $\sqrt{}$ ) is a way of requesting one to find what number times itself equals the number underneath the radical sign. One must also remember the function of taking the square root of a negative number. Remember the following property: ( $\sqrt{-1}=i$ ). Simplify the given equation. Factor each of the terms and rewrite the equation. Use the square root property to simplify the radicals and perform operations between them.
