Surface area of a cube is given by
SA=6a²
but
SA=150 in²
thus
150=6a²
solving for a we obtain:
150/6=a²
a²=25
thus
a=√25
a=5 inches
hence the side length is 5inches
It would be 2 1/4 because .25 in fraction form is 1/4 because it is a quarter and then 2
Solution:
The permutation formula is expressed as

The combination formula is expressed as

where

Given that 6 objects are taken at a time from 8, this implies that

Thus,
Number of permuations:

Number of combinations:

Hence, there are 28 combinations and 20160 permutations.
You have to take $8,550 times 0.12 (12%) to find out the number it is being decreased by.
8,550 x 0.12 = 1,026
And then, you have to subtract 1,026 from 8,550 three times for three years and your answer becomes 5,472.
$5,472
