Answer:

No it would result in a change.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets take an example, 100. If 100 is increased by 13% it is 113. However, if you decrease 113 by 13% it is equal to 98.31. Thus, the result would change. This is a trick question, to fool people.

In a New York Times/CBS News Poll, respondents were asked if it should be legal or illegal to send a text message while driving.

AnnZ [28]

Answer: $\dfrac2{201}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of persons said it is legal to text while driving = 8

Number of persons said it is illegal to text while driving = 804

Total persons sampled = 804+8 = 812

Since probability = $\dfrac{\text{favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}$

The probability of randomly selecting someone who believes it should be legal to text while driving = $\dfrac{8}{804}=\dfrac2{201}$

Required probability = $\dfrac2{201}$

Find the area of the figure.<br><br> plz i give brainliest.

Sonja [21]

Answer:

23.5 inches^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of triangle = 1/2 * base * height

area = 1/2 * (5+2) * (5+4)

area = 31.5 in^2

Area of rectangle = length * breadth

area = 4 * 2

area = 8 in^2

Area of figure = area of triangle - area of rectangle

area = 31.5 - 8

area =23.5 in^2

Consider a cylinder with a diameter of 8 feet and a height of h feet. Which equation can be used to find V, the volume of the cy

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is given by

$V = \pi r^{2} h\\$

Substituting the values of radius and height in above equation, we get -

$radius = \frac{diameter}{2} \\radius = \frac{8}{2} \\radius = 4 feet\\V = \pi 4^{2} h\\$
