I hope I am reading the problem right: The price of a mountain bike increased by 20% in the past year. The value is $150. What was the value of the mountain bike last year?
Let's simplify this. One year, there was this radical mountain bike that used to have an unsaid price, <em>x. </em>That year, that price of x increased by 20% more than it was before, or <em>120% times the original value</em>. Because of that, it's now $150.
We can equation this.
1.20x = 150
x = 150/1.2
x = 125
The bike, I believe, cost $125 last year. Hope this helps!

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
36 d²-36 d+9=9(4d²+4d+1)
=9[4d²+2d+2d+1]
=9[2d(2d+1)+1(2d+1)]
=9(2d+1)(2d+1)
=9(2d+1)²
=[3(2d+1)]²
=(6d+6)²
length=6d+6
perimeter=4(6d+6)=24d+24
when d=2
length=6×2+6=18in
perimeter=4×18=72 in
area=18²=324 in²
