8 earth years
The answer is $57.60
(The original price) 45+ 12.60 (28% of 45) = 57.60
Everyone works differently in mental meth.
To calculate 9*52, we note that 9=10-1, so mentally calculate
9(52)
=(10-1)(52)
=520-52 [ subtract 20 from each number]
=(520-20)-(52-20)
=500-32
=468.
Alternatively,
9*52=9*50+9*2=450+18=468
If you're good with multiplication and division,
9*52=3*3(52)=3*156=450+18=468
Foil method:
FOIL stands for
first-multiply the first term in each set of parenthesis
outer-multiply the outer term in each of the perenthesis
inner- multiply the inner term in each of the parenthesis
last- multiply the last term in each of the parenthesis
(3x+8)(x+1)
(3x*x)=3x^2
(3x*1)=3x
8*x=8x
8*1=8
thus we shall have:
3x^2+3x+8x+8
=3x^2+11x+8
Distributive property:
(3x+8)(x+1)
3x(x+1)+8(x+1)
3x^2+3x+8x+8
=3x^2+11x+8
Both methods are efficient, it all depends with the users preference
Given:
15% of its height each day
27 inches on day 10.
How tall was it yesterday?
27 represents 115% of the height yesterday. So we divided 27 by 115% to get yesterdays height.
27 ÷ 115% = 23.48 inches.
The plant was 23.48 inches tall yesterday.
To check:
23.48 x 15% = 3.52 inches
23.48 + 3.52 = 27 inches
