25% decrease because if you multiply 20x.25 you get 5 and you minus the 5 from 20 books and you get 15 books

$\bf \textit{volume of a sphere}\\\\
V=\cfrac{4\pi r^3}{3}\implies V=\cfrac{4\pi }{3}r^3
\\\\\\
\cfrac{dV}{dt}=\cfrac{4\pi }{3}\cdot \stackrel{chain~rule}{3r^2\cdot \cfrac{dr}{dt}}\quad 
\begin{cases}
\frac{dr}{dt}=50\\
r=6
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{dV}{dt}=\cfrac{4\pi }{3}\cdot 3(6)^2\cdot 50\\\\\\ \cfrac{dV}{dt}=\stackrel{\frac{cm^3}{s}}{7200\pi}$

What is the length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle below

ale4655 [162]

Using Sine.

Sine = Opposite / Hypotenuse

sin 60° = a / (6√3) But sin60° = √3/2

√3/2 = a/(6√3)

Cross multiply

2*a = 6√3 * √3

2a = 6 * √(3*3)

2a = 6*3

a = 6*3/2

a = 3*3 = 9

Option E.

Hope this helps.

WHAT IS 4 TIMES TWO THIRDS IN A MIXED FRACTION

Alex73 [517]

$\frac{4}{1}$ × $\frac{2}{3}$ = $\frac{8}{3}$
You then divide the numerator(top) by the denominator(bottom)
$\frac{8}{3}$ = $2 \frac{2}{3}$
Your answer is $2 \frac{2}{3}$
