No, this is not true every time. It depends on the conditions given.

For example-

Suppose we have a Box A with dimensions 10 x 10 x 1 and Box B with dimensions 5 x 5 x 5.

Box B has a surface area = 2(25+25+25) = 150 and a volume of 5*5*5= 125 cubic units

Box A has a larger surface area = 2(100+10+10) = 240 and a smaller volume = 10*10*1 = 100 cubic units

Similarly take an example of sphere.

Lets suppose the radius of the sphere is 2 cm

So, SA is 4πr² = 4*3.14*2*2 = 50.24 cm²

Volume of the sphere is = 4πr³ /3 = 33.50 cm³

Here also the SA is greater.

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The distance of the playground is 540m

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are interested in calculating the length of the playground given the information in the question.

Where to attack the question from is the segment that states that he took a break after 480m and also had 2 breaks. Thus, the distance traveled would be 480 * 2 = 960 m

Now, to find the length of the track, we add the distance covered plus the distance uncovered. Mathematically that would be 960m + 120m = 1,080m

In the last part of the question, we are told that the track is twice as long as the playground. This means that the length of the playground or the distance of the playground is 1080/2 = 540 m

What two numbers multiply to 20 and add up to 17
Shalnov [3]
That is not possible, since 20 has the factors of 1,2,4,5,10, and 20. None of those add up to 17, maybe your question has a mistake in it. For further questions, you can message me. Hope this helps! Please rate brainiest answer.

Find each percent increase or decrease to the nearest percent:
Svet_ta [14]
From 10 to 15 -> 10 increased with half its size (5), that means increase of 50%
From 16 to 12 -> decrease of 4, which is a quarter of 16, that means a decrease of 25%
