Answer:

Decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

So, I encourage you to grab a calculator and see for yourself

Put in the function: 4/5 into a standard calculator. You will see that it will come out to .8

Put in the function: 3/5 into a standard calculator. You will see that it will come out to .6

.6 is less than .8, just as 3/5 is less than 4/5.

Another analogy that can be used is seeing the fraction as a real-life object.

Let's say that you make two pies. You cut the pie evenly into five slices. You set them on the table and leave them for whoever wants to eat them. You see that Pie 1 has two slices missing (3/5) and that Pie 2 has one slice missing. (4/5)

3 out of 5 slices are left of Pie 1.

4 out of 5 slices are left of Pie 2.

Pie 1 has less than Pie 2 does.

Hope this has helped!

Answer: y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

A square's area can be done by using s^2, where s is y in this case. Because there are 5 squares, the area of the figure is 5y^2. Because the area is also 180cm, 5y^2=180.

Then divide both sides of the equation by 5 to get y^2 = 36. Then square root both sides of the equation to get y = 6.

A circle is shown. 4 radii are drawn. Chords are drawn to connect the radii points on the circle to form 2 triangles. The triang

Answer:

Area of Shaded Region = (25π - 24) cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment

From the attached, the following observations are made;

Radius, r = 5cm

Base of triangles = 6cm.

Required

Area of shaded region.

If the distance between the base of the triangle to the outline of the circle is 1cm then the height of the triangle is 1cm less than the radius

Height = 5cm - 1cm

Height = 4cm

To calculate the area of the shaded region, we first calculate the area of the circle.

Area = πr²

Substitute 5 for r

Area = π * 5²

Area = π * 25

Area = 25π cm²

Then we calculate the area of both triangles

Area of 1 triangle is calculated as follows.

Area = ½ * base * height

Substitute 4 for height and 6 for base.

Area = ½ * 4 * 6

Area = 2 * 6

Area = 12cm²

Since both triangles are equal.

Area of two triangles = 2 * Area of 1 triangle

Area = 2 * 12cm²

Area = 24cm²

Having calculated the area of the circle and that of both triangles.

Area of shaded region = Area of Circle - Area of Triangles

Area of Shaded Region = 25π cm² - 24 cm²

Area of Shaded Region = (25π - 24) cm²

Answer:

The surface area of the net shown is: 88 $in^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Break up the different shapes in the net:

Let's take the big square first:

It has a side of 5in and a base of 4in.

We multiply both these values to get 20 $in^2$

Lets look at the small rectangular box now:

It has a side of 3in and a base of 4in.

We multiply both these values to get 12 $in^2$

There are two big squares so we add up their surface areas:

20 $in^2$ + 20 $in^2$ = 40 $in^2$

There are 4 small rectangular squares so we add up their surface areas:

12 $in^2$ + 12 $in^2$ + 12 $in^2$ + 12 $in^2$ = 48 $in^2$

Now we add up the big square and small rectangular squares values:

40 $in^2$ + 48 $in^2$ = 88 $in^2$

Therefore the answer is 88 $in^2$
