30 percent decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

looking at this i know its a percent decrease

so how do we find percent decrease ?

first we subtract the first value 39.39 & the final value 27.57

39.39-27.57 = 11.82

then we divide 11.82 by the first value

like this 11.82÷39.39 = 0.3000

then we multiply what we got by 100

0.3000×100= 30 percent

the way that most people mess up is when they divide sometimes they might do 39.39 divided by 11.82 instead of 11.82÷39.39.

What is the area of the square? Help me pls

Allushta [10]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find out the circumference of the circle.

We know that the circle has a radius of 1, and that we are finding the circumference. We'll use the circumference equation of a circle.

2 $\pi$ r

Plug in 1 for r.

$2\pi (1)$ = $2\pi$ = circumference of circle

Now, multiply the answer (the circumference) by 4 to get the perimeter of the square.

$2\pi$ x 4 = $8\pi$ = perimeter of square

Now, divide the perimeter by 4 to get what the side of the square is.

$8\pi$ ÷ 4 = $2\pi$

Now, multiply $2\pi$ by $2\pi$ (side times side) to get the area.

$2\pi$ x $2\pi$ = $4\pi$

The answer is A. $4\pi$

Which number is between 7/11 and 0.75( the 75 is repeating)

AlekseyPX

Convert 7/11 to a decimal value.

7 divided by 11 = 0.636364

Subtract 0.636364 to 0.757576 and divide the difference by 2.

Following the equation, 0.636364 - 0.757576 = 0.121212.

0.121212 divided by 2, the quotient is 0.06 (06 is repeating)
