First you convert 20% into a decimal which is 0.2 and multiply that by 42 and you get 8.4, that's the discount. Then you subtract 8.4 from 42 and get $33.60 which is your answer. Hope this helps!!

If the scale factor of a scale drawing is greater than one, the scale drawing is larger than the actual object

galina1969 [7]

False, for example, if the scale factor is 2, the scale drawing would still be smaller because it would be twice as smaller than the actual object.

Multiply. (2x2 + 4x - 3)(x2 - 2x + 5)

BigorU [14]

For a moment, let $y=x^2-2x+5$ . Then by the distributive property,

$(2x^2+4x-3)p=2x^2p+4xp-3p$

Again by the distributive property,

$2x^2p=2x^2(x^2-2x+5)=2x^4-4x^3+10x^2$

$4xp=4x(x^2-2x+5)=4x^3-8x^2+20x$

$-3p=-3(x^2-2x+5)=-3x^2+6x-15$

Taking everything together, we get

$(2x^2+4x-3)(x^2-2x+5)=(2x^4-4x^3+10x^2)+(4x^3-8x^2+20x)+(-3x^2+6x-15)$
$(2x^2+4x-3)(x^2-2x+5)=2x^4-x^2+26x-15$
