Old price: p1 = $ 3.90;
New price: p2 = $ 3.40.
The percentual decrease is given by
d(%) = [ (p2 - p1) / p1 ] * 100 %
d(%) = [ (3.40 - 3.90) / 3.90 ] * 100 %
d(%) = [ - 0.50 / 3.90 ] * 100 %
d(%) = - 0.128 * 100 %
d(%) = - 12.8 % (approximately)
So the price fell 12.8 % approximately.
I hope this helps. =)
happy with solution rate this
The answer is A. Hope this helped
Answer:
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • -8 = -8
Step-2 : Find two factors of -8 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -18 .
-8 + 1 = -7
-4 + 2 = -2
-2 + 4 = 2
-1 + 8 = 7
Observation : No two such factors can be found !!
Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored
Final result :
2 • (x2 - 18x - 8)
