Answer:

Stefan spend $120 originally.

Stefan made $72 by selling bicycle and helmet to Jim.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of bicycle = $175

Cost of Helmet = $17

Percent of total cost of Jim = 160% of original cost of Stefan

We need to find the Amount Stefan spend originally and money he made by selling the bicycle and helmet to Jim.

Solution:

Let the Amount Stefan spend originally be 'x'.

Total Cost of Jim is equal to sum of Cost of bicycle and Cost of Helmet.

framing in equation form we get;

Total Cost of Jim = 175+17 =\$192

Now we know that;

Total Cost of Jim is equal to 160% of  Amount Stefan spend originally.

framing in equation form we get;

192 = \frac{160}{100}\times x\\\\192 =1.6x

Dividing both side by 1.6 we get;

\frac{192}{1.6}=\frac{1.6x}{1.6}\\\\x= \$120

Hence Stefan spend $120 originally.

Now we can say that;

Money Stefan made is equal to Money Stefan spend originally minus Total Cost of Jim.

framing in equation form we get;

Money Stefan made = 192-120 =\$72

Hence Stefan made $72 by selling bicycle and helmet to Jim.

3√12•√6<br><br>please show a step by step explanation ​
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:  18\sqrt{2}\\\\

This is the same as saying 18*sqrt(2) or you could say 18√2

============================================================

Explanation:

We'll be using this square root rule: \sqrt{A}*\sqrt{B} = \sqrt{A*B}

So we could have this as our steps:

3\sqrt{12}*\sqrt{6}\\\\3\sqrt{12*6} \ \text{ ... Apply the rule mentioned}\\\\3\sqrt{72}\\\\3\sqrt{36*2}\\\\3\sqrt{36}*\sqrt{2} \ \text{ ... Apply the rule again, but in reverse}\\\\3*6*\sqrt{2}\\\\18\sqrt{2}\\\\

Therefore, 3\sqrt{12}*\sqrt{6} = 18\sqrt{2}

The basic idea is to first combine the roots using that rule. From there, we factor the radicand such that we pull out the largest perfect square factor. This will allow us to break the root apart and fully simplify it.
