To decrease by percentages you do 100 minus the percent you want to take away. In this case it's 100-5=95. Then divide 95 by 100 which is 0.95. This is the multiplier. Finally, times the multiplier by the number for your answer. In this situation it's 0.95*840=798. The answer is £798.

valina [46]

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with the vertex form of the equation of a parabola:  y - k = a(x - h)^2

Here h = -2, k = -3, x = -1, y = -5.  Find a:

-5 - [-3] = a(-1 - [-2])^2, or

-5 + 3 = a(1)^2, or

-2 = a

The unknown coefficient is -2.

What is the slant height of a square pyramid that has a surface area of 336 square meters and a side length of 12
Artist 52 [7]

Check the picture below.

the surface area of the pyramid is simply the area of the four triangular faces plus the squarish base, and the triangular faces have a base of 12 and an altitude or height of "s", and we know that's 336.

336~~ = ~~\stackrel{\textit{\LARGE Areas}}{\stackrel{square}{(12)(12)}~~ + ~~\stackrel{\textit{four triangles}}{4\left[ \cfrac{1}{2}(\underset{b}{12})(\underset{h}{s}) \right]}}\implies 336~~ = ~~144~~ + ~~24s \\\\\\ 192=24s\implies \cfrac{192}{24}=s\implies 8~m=s
