Decreased by 25%
find 25% of 12 and decrease 12 by it
percent means parts out of 100
25%=25/100=1/4
'of' means multiply
25% of 12=1/4 times 12=3
decrease 12 by 3
12-3=9
answer is 9
Answer:
282.74
Step-by-step explanation:
False, they actually decreased some.
Let's rewrite the binomial as:


Using the binomial expansion, we get:

For the 15th term, we want the term where r is equal to 14, because of the fact that the first term starts when r = 0. Thus, for the 15th term, we need to include the 0th or the first term of the binomial expansion.
Thus, the fifteenth term is:
3 1/8 = 25/8
25 and 8 have no common factors, so 25/8 is in simplest form.
