Question 8<br> Calculate the difference (4x2 + x - 5) – (5x2 - 1).
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

(4x2 + x - 5) - (5x2 - 1)

According to the order of operations, parenthesis come first so we will solve what is in the parenthesis first.

Then we do the multiplication because it comes before addition and subtraction.

4x2 = 8

Now we have 8 + x - 5

Combine like terms and 8-5=3 so we have 3 + x

Now for the second one.

5x2=10

10-1=9

Subtracting this from the first expression we have:

3+x-9 =

x - 6

A shirt originally cost $39.39, but it is on sale for $27.57. What is the percentage decrease of the price of the shirt?
IgorLugansk [536]

30 percent decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

looking at this i know its a percent decrease

so how do we find percent decrease ?

first we subtract the first value 39.39 & the final value 27.57

39.39-27.57 = 11.82

then we divide 11.82 by the first value

like this 11.82÷39.39 = 0.3000

then we multiply what we got by 100

0.3000×100= 30 percent

the way that most people mess up is when they divide sometimes they might do 39.39 divided by 11.82 instead of 11.82÷39.39.
