% CHANGE FORMULA:
(New # - Original #) ÷ Original # x 100

=(54mg - 48mg)/48mg * 100
=6/48 * 100
=0.125 * 100
=12.5% increase

Hope this helps! :)

A container built for transatlantic shipping is constructed in the shape of a right rectangular prism. Its dimensions are 7 ft b

____ [38]

Given:

Dimensions are 7 ft by 5 ft by 8.5 ft

Contents weigh 0.21 pound

Contents worth $8.80 per pound

Find-: value of container contents.

Sol:

Volume is:

$\begin{gathered} Volume\text{ = }7\times5\times8.5 \\ \\ =297.5 \end{gathered}$

The formula of density is:

$\text{ Density =}\frac{\text{ Mass}}{\text{ Volume}}$

So,

$\begin{gathered} 0.21=\frac{\text{ Weight of contents in container}}{\text{ Volume of container}} \\ \\ 0.21=\frac{\text{ Weight}}{297.5} \\ \\ 0.21\times297.5=\text{ Weight} \\ \\ \text{ Weight of contents in container = }62.475\text{ Pound} \end{gathered}$

Now $8.80 per pound

For 62.475 pounds the value is:

$\begin{gathered} =62.475\times8.80 \\ \\ =549.78 \end{gathered}$

So the value of the container contents is 549.78

If y=x+2 we’re changed to y=x-1 how would the graph of a new function compare with the first one

butalik [34]

The y-intercept is being changed. In the equations given we are using the formula (y=mx +b), b means the y intercept. In this we are changing the y intercept from 2 to -1. There is nothing else being changed.

If you know the rate of a water leak in gallons per hour, how can you find the number of hours it takes for 1 gallon to leak out

Evgen [1.6K]

1/the rate of leakage per hour

This will give you the time it takes for 1 gallon to leak out in hours.

For example, if something is leaking at the rate of 12 gallons per hour, it will take 1/12 of an hour for 1 gallon to leak out. ( or 5 min)
