Answer:

28%

Step-by-step explanation:

To increase a number by a certain percentage it is multiplied by a decimal greater than 1. E.g. if we wanted to find 20% more of 20,000, we would do:

20% increase to a number = 1.2

20,000x1.2= 24,000

Original number x Percentage increase = Final number

Since we don't know the percentage increase, but have both other variables, we can rearrange the above equation to solve for it:

Percentage increase = final number/original number

Percentage increase = 25600/20000

Percentage increase = 1.28

Therefore the area was increased by 28%.

Hope this helped!

A cone has a slant length of 10 and a diameter of 8. Height is unknown.
patriot [66]

Answer: 153.56

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formulas:

Volume of a cone: 1/3 π r² h

Where r is the radius and h is the height (unknown)

Diameter = r x 2

8 = 2r

8/2 =r

r = 4  

Before calculating the volume we have to apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find h. (where the slant is the hypotenuse and h and r are the sides of the triangle)

10 ² = h² + 4²

Solving for h

100 = h² + 16

100-16 = h²

84= h²  

√84 =h

9.16= h

Back on the volume formula:

V= 1/3 π r² h

V =1/3 π 4² (9.16) =153.56

What’s 22,000 - 407% of 60?
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

21,755.8

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation, we must first find 407% of 60.

To do this, place the percent over 100 (fraction form), then, multiply it by the number you're finding the percentage of.

407/100 x 60/1 = 24,420/100

24420 / 100 = 244.2

244.2 is 407% of 60.

Lastly, you subtract 244.2 from 22,000.

22,000 - 244.2 = 21,755.8
