To decrease this amount by 15% we must first find out what is 15% percent.
We can do that by multiplying the decimal of 15% by 120
15% = 0.15
0.15 x 120 = 18
So 18 is 15% of 120.
Wait! that's not the answer. We are asked to decrease by 15%
So 120 - 18 = 102
Your answer is £102
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For a. the 14.7 represents the pressure that the air puts on you all the time.
For b. the d represents the depth you go under the surface of the water.
For c. we have to solve p(d) when d = 8:
p(8) = 14.7 + 0.445(8) so
p(8) = 14.7 + 3.56 and
p(8) = 18.26 psi
Answer:215
Step-by-step explanation:
Check the picture below.
so we know the radius of the semicircle is 2 and the rectangle below it is really a 4x4 square, so let's just get their separate areas and add them up.
![\stackrel{\textit{area of the semicircle}}{\cfrac{1}{2}\pi r^2}\implies \cfrac{1}{2}(\stackrel{\pi }{3.14})(2)^2\implies 3.14\cdot 2\implies 6.28 \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{area of the square}}{(4)(4)}\implies 16 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ ~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{sum of both areas}}{16+6.28=22.28}~\hfill](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cstackrel%7B%5Ctextit%7Barea%20of%20the%20semicircle%7D%7D%7B%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Cpi%20r%5E2%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%28%5Cstackrel%7B%5Cpi%20%7D%7B3.14%7D%29%282%29%5E2%5Cimplies%203.14%5Ccdot%202%5Cimplies%206.28%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%5Cstackrel%7B%5Ctextit%7Barea%20of%20the%20square%7D%7D%7B%284%29%284%29%7D%5Cimplies%2016%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5B-0.35em%5D%20~%5Cdotfill%5C%5C%5C%5C%20~%5Chfill%20%5Cstackrel%7B%5Ctextit%7Bsum%20of%20both%20areas%7D%7D%7B16%2B6.28%3D22.28%7D~%5Chfill)
