Volume of the original cube is a³ .
That's (a · a · a) .

If you decrease the sides to 20% of their original size,
then the new volume is  (0.2a · 0.2a × 0.2a).

That's  0.008a³  or  (0.2a)³ . 

Take your choice.  I can't decide which one is simpler.

20% is mean you have a cube of 80%
So 80%=0.8
That means the volume of the new cube is (0.8)3 I mean multiply 0,8x0.8x0.8 = 0.512a cubic unit

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

40% profit

Step by step Explanation:

Profit percentage

=( profit/cost price) * 100

0.2 = profit/cost

10+15+20+25+30= 100

Let's assume the cost price of the items is $1 each

Cost price total= $100

Profit made when buyer of 20 toffe didn't say was

0.2=profit/cost

Which statement about the net is true?
Schach [20]
The net cannot be folded to form a pyramid because the faces that are not a base are not all triangles

If you fold this net up, you will get a triangular prism, NOT A PYRAMID.

A pyramid can have ANY polygon as its base, as long as all the other rest of the shapes are triangles.

Depending on the base, the number of triangles in a net of a pyramid must match the number of sides its particular base has.

For example, if you have a square pyramid turned into a net:
The base is a square (4 sides)
There should be 4 triangles on each side.

Because a pyramid is where all the triangles must meet up at a point.

Hope this helps!
