Sales of a certain product are declining at a rate proportional to the amount of sales. If at the end of the first year the sales have declined by 22%, then how many years will have passed (since the beginning of the first year) when sales become only 31% of their original value? Express your answer as a decimal, correct to within 0.001 years.

The answer is "6.093 years".

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of decline in sales in per year.

The starting sales is 100 units:

Using compounding formula:

taking log on both sides

a net is a diagram that shows a “flattened” view of a solid. in a net, each face and base is shown with all of its dimensions. a net can also serve as a pattern to build a three-dimensional solid.

a pyramid is a three-dimensional object with a base that is a polygon and triangular faces that meet at one vertex.

" the net of a triangular pyramid consists of four triangles. the base here we are given of the pyramid is a equilateral   triangle, and the lateral faces are also triangles "

80π/3 or about 83.775

step-by-step explanation:

since a cone is 1/3 of a cylinder, we need to find the base's area. since area = πr^2, we get 16π. then, multiplying this by 5, we get 80π. dividing by 3, since the cone's volume is 1/3 of that of a cylinder's, we get 80π/3.

hope this !
