Answer:
whts the question??
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The area after 9 years will be 1,234 km^2
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are tasked with calculating what the area of a certain forest that decreases at a certain percentage would be after some years.
To answer this question, we shall be using an exponential approximation.
Now, to use this exponential approximation, we shall be needing a supporting exponential mathematical equation.
This can be written as;
A = I(1-r)^t
where A is the new area we are looking for
I is the initial area which is 1700 according to the question
r is the rate of decrease which is 3.5% = 3.5/100 = 0.035
t is time which is 9 years according to the question
We plug these values and have the following;
A = 1700(1-0.035)^9
A = 1700(0.965)^9
A = 1,233.66
This is 1,234 km^2 to the nearest square kilometer
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the volume of the cylinder
The volume of the cylinder is equal to

we have
---> the radius is half the diameter

substitute

step 2
Find the volume of the cone
The volume of the cone is equal to

we have
we have
---> the radius is the same that the radius of the cylinder

substitute

step 3
Find the volume of the plastic object
we know that
The volume of the plastic object is equal to the volume of the cylinder minus the volume of the cone
so

assume
