Answer:

The price was reduced by 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Not sure how to go step by step on this, because it's kinda obvious once you think about it a bit. You need to find what percent of 40 that 10 equals (if that makes sense). So really it's just what percent of 40 equals 10? and since 10 is one fourth of forty, 1/4, then you convert that to percent: 25% (sorry if this made no sense, i'm not very good at explaining things)

Answer:

438.97 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the surface area, we break up the figure into two pieces(blue and yellow) and then add them together.

SA = 2(w · l + h · l + h · w)

2 · (6 · 16 + 4 · 16 + 4 · 6)

368 cm²

70.97 cm² + 368 cm²

X-4x-32=0, explain the steps of answering it

zzz [600]

First step: combine the x terms, x - 4x = -3x.

Second step: Add 32 to both sides, which will cancel out the -32.

Now you have -3x = 32.

To solve for x, divide 32 by -3. The answer is -10.667.
