Answer:

The volume of the new crate is exactly 174.4% of the old crate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a rectangular prism:

The volume of a rectangular prism of dimensions x, y and z is given by:

V = xyz

She decided that the dimensions of the new crate needs to be increased by 40% of the original length.

Each dimension is increased by 40%, which means that each is multiplied by 1 + 0.4 = 1.4. So

V = 1.4x(1.4y)(1.4z) = (1.4)^3(xyz) = 2.744(xyz)

Percentage:

The new volume is 2.744 the original volume. Considering the original volume is 100% = 1, it increased by 2.744 - 1 = 1.744 = 1.744*100% = 174.4%.

The volume of the new crate is exactly 174.4% of the old crate.

When a certain tree was first planted, it was 4 feet tall, and the height of the tree increased by a constant amount each year f
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Option D is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial height = 4 feet

Given that the height of the tree increased by a constant amount each year for the next 6 years. At the end of the 6th year, the tree was 1/5th taller than it was at the end of the 4th year.

Let the rate of growing each year be g.

After 6 years height of tree = 4 + 6g

After 4 years height of tree = 4 + 4g

At the end of the 6th year, the tree was 1/5th taller than it was at the end of the 4th year.

That is

                4+6g=4+4g+\frac{4+4g}{5}\\\\4+6g=\frac{20+20g+4+4g}{5}\\\\20+30g=24+24g\\\\6g=4\\\\g=\frac{2}{3}ft/year

Option D is the correct answer.
