The price of a laptop computer decreased from 475 to 275. What is the percent of decrease in price

1 answer:

8 0

First find the difference in prices...

475 - 275 = 200 so the price went down 200 dollars. No we need to find what percentage of 475 is 200.

475 × x = 200
x = 200/475
x = .4211

Now convert to percentage by multiplying by 100 (move decimal 2 places to the right)

.4211 = 42.11%

It is a 42.11% price reduction.

A sphere has a radius of 16 in. Which statements about the sphere are true? Check all that apply.

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

The sphere has a diameter of 32 in. CORRECT: the diameter of a sphere doubles its radio, so if the radio equals 16,the diameter measures the double, in this case, 32.
The radius' lenght is one half the length of the diameter. CORRECT: , by definition, the diameter is the maximum distance between two opposite points on the surface of the sphere, and its lenght equals twice the radius because the radius is the distance between the center of the sphere and any point of the frontier of the sphere (then, one colud imagine that the distance between two opposite points in a sphere can be united by two radius, or a diameter).
The volume (V) of a sphere can be calculated as $\frac{4\pi r^3}{3}$ , where r is the radio. In this case, the volume of the sphere will be $\frac{4\pi\times16^3}{3}=\frac{4\pi\times4096}{3}$ , which is also equal to $\frac{16384\times\pi}{3}$ .
