C. multiplication (the 8 x 9 within the parenthesis)
Answer: $1.50
Step-by-step explanation:
The item's normal price is $15.
Han uses a 10% off coupon so he saves 10% which is:
= 15 * 10%
= $1.50
He therefore bought the item for $8.50.
First, reorder the numbers from least to greatest
1.4, 1.6, 1.7, 2.5, 2.5
The median is the middle number
1.7 is your answer

Group x terms
(2x^2+8x)-12=0
undistribute 2
2(x^2+4x)-12=0
take 1/2 of 4 and square it, add negative and positive of it insde (2^2=4)
2(x^2+4x+4-4)-12=0
factor perfect square
2((x+2)^2-4)-12=0
distribute
2(x+2)^2-8-12=0
2(x+2)^2-20=0
add 20 to both sides
2(x+2)^2=20
divide both sides by 2
(x+2)^2=10
sqrt both sides, remember to take positive and negative root
x+2=+/-√10
minus 2 both sides
x=-2+√10 and -2-√10
