The decrease rate is 33.3%

The deceased rate is x
48 (1-X)=32
x= 0.333

For questions that deal with tax or percentage decrease, multiply the original number by the options given too you like this 48x.16/48x.33/48.66 and so on so forth and subtract the amount you get from those from the original problem

Been a while since I’ve needed to not use a calculator. Why is -2X10^-18 (3/16) = 4.09X10^-19?

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$2.18*10^{-18}(\frac{3}{16})$

we have that

$\frac{3}{16}=0.1875$

Convert to scientific notation

$0.1875=1.875*10^{-1}$

substitute

$2.18*10^{-18}(1.875*10^{-1}})$

Remember that

To multiply two numbers in scientific notation, multiply their coefficients and add their exponents

$2.18*10^{-18}1.875*10^{-1}}=(2.18*1.875)*10^{(-18-1)}=4.0875*10^{-19}$

Round the number 4.0875 two decimal places

$4.0875*10^{-19}=4.09*10^{-19}$

Find a whole number between 9 4/9 and the square root of 144

postnew [5]

First, we'll want to write out the equation
$9 \frac{4}{9} < n < \sqrt{144}$

then reduce what we can
$9 \frac{4}{9} < n < 12$

so this means n can equal any whole number between 9 4/9 & 12, which gives us the options of {10,11}

$n = 10 \: or \: 11$
