Answer:
The price was decreased by 40%
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the original price and subtract the new price
20-12 = 8
Divide by the original price
8/20 = .4
Change to a percent
40 %
The price was decreased by 40%
In every case, you're finding the surface area of a rectangular prism. That area is the sum of the areas of the 6 rectangular faces. Since opposite faces have the same area, the formula can be written
... S = 2(LW +WH +HL)
The number of multiplications can be reduced if you rearrange the formula to
... S = 2(LW +H(L +W))
where L, W, and H are the length, width, and height of the prism. (It does not matter which dimension gets what name, as long as you use the same number for the same variable in the formula.)
When you're evaluating this formula over and over for diffferent sets of numbers, it is convenient to let a calculator or spreadsheet program do it for you.
1. S = 2((5 cm)(5 cm) +(5 cm)(5 cm +5 cm)) = 2(25 cm² +(5 cm)(10 cm))
... = 2(25 cm² + 50 cm²) = 150 cm²
2. S = 2(12·6 + 2(12+6)) mm² = 2(72 +36) mm² = 216 mm²
3. S = 2(11·6 + 4(11 +6)) ft² = 2·134 ft² = 264 ft²
4. S = 2(10·4 +3(10 +4)) in² = 164 in²

Answer: 8.5 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to apply an exponential growth function:
A = P (1 + r) t
Where:
p = original population
r = growing rate (decimal form) =18/100 = 0.18
t= years
A = population after t years
Replacing with the values given:
192,000 = 47,000 (1+ 0.18)^t
Solving for t:
192,000/47,000 = 1.18^t
4.08 =1.18^t
ln 4.08 = ln 1.18^t
ln 4.08 =t (ln 1.18)
ln 4.08 / ln 1.18 =t
8.5 years = t
