Answer:

the store owner pays $ 42 for the pair of jeans

Step-by-step explanation:

we will make an equation that represents the cost of the item and the cost of sale

we will call x at the cost of the item we don't know the price

x * 125/100 = 52.50

Now that we have the equation we just have to clear the x

x = 52.50 / (125/100)

and finally we solve

x = 52.50 / 1.25

x = 42

the store owner pays $ 42 for the pair of jeans

Which polynomial expression represents the area of the outer most square tile, shown below?
Andrew [12]

ANSWER

{x}^{2}  - 6x + 9

EXPLANATION

The outermost square tile has side length,

l = x - 3

The area of a square is given by;

Area= {l}^{2}

We substitite the given expression for the side length into the formula to obtain,

Area= {(x - 3)}^{2}

Area= {(x - 3)}(x - 3)

We expand using the distributive property to obtain;

Area=x {(x - 3)} - 3(x - 3)

This gives us:

Area= {x}^{2}  - 3x - 3x  + 9

Area= {x}^{2}  - 6x + 9

The last choice is correct.

Factor completely 2x^2 − 2x − 40. 2(x − 5)(x 4) (2x − 10)(x 4) (x − 5)(2x 8) 2(x − 4)(x 5)
Zina [86]
2x^2 - 2x - 40 = 2x^2 -10x + 8x - 40 = 2x(x - 5) + 8(x - 5)

= (x-5)(2x+8) = 2(x-5)(x+4)
