The answer is -30%
percent change [(50-35)/50]x100=-30%

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%

A can of tuna fish is a cylinder with a height of 1.75 inches and a diameter of 3 inches. If the can is half full, how many cubi

zlopas [31]

Answer: $6.185in^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculate the volume of a cylinder is:

$V_{cylinder}=\pi r^2h$

r is the radius of the cylinder and h is the height of the cylinder.

Given the diameter of 3 inches, calculate the radius of the cylinder with:

$r=\frac{d}{2}$ (Where d is the diameter)

$r=\frac{3in}{2}=1.5in$

Knowing the height and the radius, you can calculate the volume of the entire can of tuna:

$V_{can}=\pi (1.5)^2(1.75in)=12.37in^3$

As you want to know the cubic inches of tuna that are in the can (volume of tuna), and you know that the can is half full, then:

$V_{tuna}=\frac{V_{can}}{2}\\\\V_{tuna}=\frac{12.37in^3}{2}\\\\V_{tuna}=6.185in^3$
