<span>Answer: The multiplication factor of increase should be inverse of the multiplication factor of decrease.

    e.g. Say you have a number 100. You increase it by 25%. The multiplication factor is 5/4 i.e. when you multiply 100 by 5/4, you get 100*5/4 = 125. This is 25% more than 100. Now you want to decrease it by a certain % such that you get 100 back. Basically, 100*5/4 * x = 100 So x = 4/5 (inverse of 5/4) Hence, you decrease by 20% (the multiplication factor of 20% is 4/5) or Use this formula: cumulative % change = a + b + ab/100 You want the cumulative change to be 0. a + b + ab/100 = 0 If you know that you are increasing by 25% and want to find the % by which you should decrease to get the same number, 25 + b + 25b/100 = 0 5b/4 = -25 b = -20 So you need to decrease (hence you get the -ve sign) by 20%.</span>

Divide the following polynomials (a4 + 4b4) ÷ (a2 - 2ab + 2b2)
telo118 [61]
(a^4 + 4b^4) ÷ (a^2 - 2ab + 2b^2)
= [(a^2 - 2ab + 2b^2) (a^2 + 2ab + 2b^2)] / (a^2 - 2ab + 2b^2)
= a^2+2ab+2b^2 =The answer

(a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2 => square of sums
(a - b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2 => square of deference
and of course one of most important ones:
a^2 - b^2 = (a - b)(a + b) => difference of squares
Best Answer: (a^4 + 4b^4) ÷ (a^2 - 2ab + 2b^2)
= [(a^2 - 2ab + 2b^2) (a^2 + 2ab + 2b^2)] / (a^2 - 2ab + 2b^2)
= a^2 + 2ab + 2b^2
a^4 + 4b^4 => i.e. 4a^2b^2 ,
a^4 + 4a^2b^2 + 4b^4 => a^2 + 2ab + b^2 = (a + b)^2, if : a = a^2 , b = 2b^2:
(a^2 + 2b^2)^2 = a^4 + 4a^2b^2 + 4b^4 => We can't add or subtract the value to the expression.
a^4 + 4a^2b^2 + 4b^4 - 4a^2b^2 =>
(a^2 + 2b^2)^2 - 4a^2b^2 =>
(a^2 + 2b^2 - 2ab)(a^2 + 2b^2 + 2ab) =>
(a^2 - 2ab + 2b^2) (a^2 + 2ab + 2b^2)

    To go from (0,0) to (3,-5), you must go to the right 3 and down 5.

I cannot answer 2 or 3, as rotations are not my strong suit.
