Answer:

340

Step-by-step explanation:

As it was increased by 25%, $425 is 125% of the original price, so we can get back to 100% by dividing 425 by 5 [85], so 85 is 25% of the price. We can now get the original price by subtracting 85 from 425 (or you could multiply 85 by 4) which is 340

You can check this answer by multiplying 340 by 1.25

If the answer is 425, then it is correct, else, not. [it is]

Answer:

Which of the following is the solution set of x2 + 8x + 12 = 0? (-2.-6 2.6

algol [13]

To solve this polynomial equation, we first factor the left side.

To factor x² + 8x + 12 = 0, look for factors of 12 that add to 8.

These factors are 6 and 2 so we have (x + 6)(x + 2) = 0.

So either x + 6 = 0 or x + 2 = 0 and solving for

x in each equation, our answer is {-6, -2}.
