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! :)

What is the length x of PQ
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

11.2

Step-by-step explanation:

If the rectangulars are similar then we can use similarity ratio to calculate value of x

CD is similar to RS and AB is similar to QP

4/6.4 = 7/x cross multiply expressions

4x = 44.8 divide both sides by 4

x = 11.2

Triangle XYZ is translated 4 units up and 3 units left to yield ΔXYZ. What is the distance between any two corresponding points
Mashcka [7]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

5 units

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

A point 4 up and 3 over from its original location has moved a distance that can be found using the Pythagorean theorem.

... d² = 4² +3² = 16 +9 = 25

... d = √25 = 5 . . . . units
