Redued by 15%
orignal=100%
decrease by 15%=100%-15%=85%
find 85% of original
orignal=15 feet
85% of 15=0.85 times 15=12.75 feet
answer is B
Area of semi circle: you know the radius is 5. 5^2 * pi = 25pi/2 = 12.5pi
For triangle: bh/2 = (10 * 10)/2 = 50
Add them together: 12.5pi + 50
12.5pi = 39.25
39.25 + 50 = 89.25
It’s closest to D
$12.6 -- 25% of 12.6 is exactly $3.15
I did this by taking 3.15 / 0.25
8x=6x+20
Btw I figures it out x=10
the two consecutive numbers are 56 and 57
x+x+1=113
2x+1=113
2x=113-1
2x=112
x=112/2
x=56
therefore, x=56
x+1= 56+1= 57
