The order you apply the adjustments does make a difference because the percents that are applied will be applied to different amount.  

For example, 80% of 100 = $80.  The price would be $180.

Decreasing this by 25% 25% of 180 = $45; 180-45 = $135.  

25% of 100 is not the same as 25% of 180.

The value of the solid's surface area is equal to the value of the solid's volume. Find the value of x. We know the length is 9
Lerok [7]

Given:

The value of the solid's surface area is equal to the value of the solid's volume.

Length(l) = 9 units

width(b) = 4 units

Height(h) = x units

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

Solid's surface area is

Area=2(lb+bh+hl)

Area=2(9\times 4+4\times x+x\times 9)

Area=2(36+4x+9x)

Area=2(36+13x)

Area=72+26x

Volume of solid is

Volume=l\times b\times h

Volume=9\times 4\times x

Volume=36x

Solid's surface area = Volume of solid

72+26x=36x

72=36x-26x

72=10x

Divide both sides by 10.

7.2=x

Therefore, the value of x is 7.2.

6. We want to build the smallest cube possible using bricks with dimensions 8 cm - 12 cm 20 cm. How many bricks do we need?​
Georgia [21]

Answer:

1200

Step-by-step explanation:

We’ll need a number that is evenly dividable by all three values: 8,12 & 15. We can develop the generic common multiple by multiplying all three numbers and get 1440. But is that the smallest common multiple? The quick and dirty way to factor the number is to divide it by it’s various elements and see what works. In this case 1440/12=120 which is the smallest common multiple of the three numbers. The smallest length is therefore 120.

In order to find how many bricks just divide (120x120x120)/(8x12x15)=1200 bricks

write the factored form for a quadratic equation with x-intercepts of -6 and -2 and the point (-3,-6) is on the parabola
kenny6666 [7]
F(x)=a(x-x1)(x-x2)
F(x)=a(x- - 6)(x- -2)
F(x)=a(x+6)(x+2)
-6=a(-3+6)(-3+2)
-6=a(3)(-1)
-6=-3a
2=a

Equation: f(x)=2(x+6)(x+2)

I need help pls <br> What is angle 3
N76 [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 6 + 3x + 21 = 8x + 7

7x + 27 = 8x + 7

-x + 27 = 7

-x = -20

x = 20

m<3= 8(20) + 7

         160 + 7 = 167

m<1= 4(20) + 6 = 80 + 6 = 86

m<2= 3(20) + 21 = 60 + 21 = 81
