4 0

Answer:

Because 20 has to be doubled to become 40. While 40 is twice as much as 20 so you just divide 40 by 20 to get 50%.

Explanation:

20 x 20 = 40 = 100%

40 / 20 = 50%

How much p² – q² + 2pq is less than -2p² -2q² + 7pq +10 ?
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:   3p² + q² - 5pq - 10 < 0

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

p² - q² + 2pq < -2p² - 2q² + 7pq + 10

since you didn't specify what to solve for, move everything from the right side to the left side of the inequality symbol using inverse operations.

(p² + 2p²) + (- q² + 2q²) + (2pq - 7pq) + (- 10) < 0

    3p²      +        q²        +      -5pq       +   -10  < 0

3p² + q² - 5pq - 10  < 0
