Acompany has decreased the weight of its boxes of macaroni by 8 %. if the new weight of the box is 15.1 ounces, what was the original weight of the box?

Old weight is equall to 16.413 ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

New weight = 15.1 ounce

Old weight = x ounce

(Old weight) -8% of old weight= new weight

X - 0.08x= 15.1

X(1-0.08)= 15.1

X*0.92= 15.1

X= 15.1/0.92

X = 16.413

Old weight is equall to 16.413 ounce

then, the surface area of the sphere shown in the image is: 256π sq. units!

step-by-step explanation:

the lateral surface area of a sphere is 2πrh where h=2r.

then:

surface area = 4πr^2.

in this case, r=8 units ⇒ surface area = 4π(8 units)^2. = 256π sq. units!

then, the surface area of the sphere shown in the image is: 256π sq. units!

rounding to the nearest thousandth would be 452,000
