Answer:

the slant height of the pyramid = 8.54 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The slant height, height and half of the side of square makes a right angle triangle in a square base pyramid.

Let slant height be l, then 3(base), 8(perpendicular) and l(hypotenuse) make a right angle triangle.

Therefore by Pythagoras principle

l^2 = 8^2+ 3^2

⇒l = √(64+9) = √73

l = 8.54 in

the slant height of the pyramid = 8.54 in

The icecream parlor has 30 flavors, but for the last week they have only had 25 flavors. Find the percent of change. Tell if it

irina [24]

Answer:

The percent of change is 20%.

And it is increased by last month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The ice cream parlor has 30 flavors, but for the last week they have only had 25 flavors.

Now, to find the percent of change.

Flavors ice cream parlor has = 30.

Flavors last week they had = 25.

So, the flavors increased from last week by:

$30-25=5\ flavors.$

Now, to get the percent of change:

$\frac{5}{25} \times 100$

$=\frac{500}{25}$

$=20\%.$

Thus, the percent of change is 20%.

The flavor is increased by last month.

Therefore, the percent of change is 20%.

And it is increased by last month.

i cant tell you the transformations but i CAN tell you what they should look like, idk if they'll help you or not. it might jog your memory.

Step-by-step explanation:

#1 has a negative out front so what this means is that the general shape of the graph when plotted will be upside down, now as for the x-3 when you subtract a number from the inside the function goes right. finally the "+5" on the outside, when you add a number on the outside the function goes up.

so to sum things up, the shape of the graph will be upside down it will translate to the right 3 units and up 5 units.

i forgot to mention, the graph is an exponential that'll tell you the shape of the graph. hope this helps you in the slightest.
