8(1-8p) + 8p
8 - 64p + 8p
8 - 56p
8 = 56p
1/7 = p
Answer:
15 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of a pyramid = 1/3 x ( length² x height)
4500 = 1/3 x ( length² x height)
height = 1/2 x length
4500 = 1/3 x ( length² x 1/2length)
multiply both sides of the equation by 6
27000 = ( length² x length)
find the cube root of 27300
length = 30
height = 1/2 x 30 = 15in
Answer:
Percentage increases and decreases, are found by setting the problem up proportionally.
You are trying to find what percentage of 17.37 is 8.30 first.
so What %/100 = 8.30/17.37
Now define a variable:
Let x = What%
x/100 = 8.30/17.37
17.37x = 830
x = 830/17.37
x ≈ 47.78
8.30 is approximately 47.78% of 17.37, so the percentage decrease is 100% - 47.78% = 52.22%
The percentage decrease is approximately 52.22%
