Decreased by 25%
find 25% of 12 and decrease 12 by it
percent means parts out of 100
25%=25/100=1/4
'of' means multiply
25% of 12=1/4 times 12=3
decrease 12 by 3
12-3=9
answer is 9
7) Use distributive property
3x(4x⁴ - 5x)=3x*4x⁴- 3x*5x = 12x⁵ - 15x²
8) When you open parenthesis with minus sigh in front of it, you need change sings of the terms on opposite. Then find like terms.
(5x⁴-3x³+6x)-(3x³+11x²-8x)= 5x⁴-3x³+6x -3x³-11x²+8x =5x⁴-6x³ - 11x²+14x
9)(x-2)(3x-4)=x*3x-4x-6x+8=3x²-10x+8
10) (x+6)²=(x+6)(x+6)=x²+6x+6x+36=x²+12x+36
For (x+6)², you can also use the formula of the perfect square
(a+b)²=a²+2ab+b²
For (x+6)² =x²+2*x*6 +6²=x²+12x+36
you could either multiply straight away or you could simplify right then so that you wouldn't have to it later.
20/5 * 5/2
your answer would be 10 either way
Answer:
x = 5/2
x = 2 1/2
x = 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 1 - (x + 3) = 1
3x - 1 - x - 3 = 1
2x - 1 - 3 = 1
2x - 4 = 1
2x = 1 + 4
2x + 5
2x = 5
x = 5/2 → 2 1/2 → 2.5 ( can be written in any of these forms depending on what you need to do)

It would drop by 24 degrees
3 x 8 = 24
For each hour another long way is simple just do
3 x 4 = 12 now just double it
12 + 12 = 24
