Answer:

The decrease is 21%

Step-by-step explanation:

So lets say the Original area is Pi X (Radius^2)

Lets call Radius as R

For the new radius, it would be: R + 0.1R which is 1.1R

The new area is: Pi X 1.1R^2, which going further is 1.21 after squaring 1.1.

The Original area is: Pi X Radius^2

To find the percent decrease, subtract the new area by the original, cross out Pi X Radius squared and you are only left with 21%

I am in middle school so I don't know if it is going to be incorrect, but I ask you to give it a try and tell me if it was right or not. I have barely done this topic but recently I had a bonus homework question on a question almost exactly like this and this is the way I did it and I was correct. Thanks! Hope it helped! :)

Use the given parent function f(x)=|x| to graph g(x)=|x+2|-4. use the ray tool and select two points to graph each ray. ​
marin [14]

Shown in the attached figure

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The absolute value function is a function that takes the shape of a V. The pattern of the absolute value function is:

f(x)=\mid x \mid

So we need to use this function in order to obtain:

g(x)=\mid x+2 \mid -4

Recall that to translate a function vertically, we use the following rule:

g(x)=f(x)+k \\ \\ \bullet \ If \ k>0 \ the \ graph \ of \ f(x) \ is \ translated \ k \ units \ up \\ \\ \bullet \ If \ k

And to translate a function horizontally, we use the following rule:

g(x)=f(x+c) \\ \\ \bullet \ If \ c>0 \ the \ graph \ of \ f(x) \ is \ translated \ c \ units \ to \ the \ left \\ \\ \bullet \ If \ c

Since:

c=2>0 \  and \ k=-4

Then:

<em>g(x) is the translation of f(x) 2 units to the left and 4 units down</em>

Stodoła składa się z 1259 cegieł. Druga stodoła ma o 347 cegieł mniej. Trzecia ma o 567 cegieł więcej od pierwszej stodoły a czw
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Second barn: 912 bricks

Third barn: 1826 bricks

Fourth barn: 1402 bricks

Step-by-step explanation:

(English question: The barn consists of 1259 bricks. The second barn has 347 bricks less. The third has 567 bricks more than the first barn and the fourth barn has 490 bricks more than the second barn. How many bricks consists of the second, third and fourth barn.)

If the second barn has 347 bricks less than the first barn, so the second barn has:

1259 - 347 = 912 bricks

The third barn has 567 bricks more than the first barn, so the third barn has:

1259 + 567 = 1826 bricks

The fourth barn has 490 bricks more than the second barn, so the fourth barn has:

912 + 490 = 1402 bricks
