We know that the original price is 160 and has increased to 248. To calculate the increase, divide. But first lets find the difference 248-160 =88
\frac{88}{160} = 0.55 = 55\%
The percentage increase is 55%.

Select all expressions that are equivalent to 4x+2(2x-5)-(3-5x)
Arada [10]

For this case we have the following expression:

4x + 2 (2x-5) - (3-5x)

Applying distributive property to the terms within parentheses taking into account that:

- * + = -\\- * - = +

We have:

4x + 4x-10-3 + 5x =

We add similar terms taking into account that:

Equal signs are added and the same sign is placed.

4x + 4x + 5x-10-3 =\\13x-13

Thus, an equivalent expression is:

13x-13

Answer:

13x-13
