Let's first break it down to the time 8 people need for one wall. That would be 10 minutes, right? If one person would have to do it in stead of 8, you'd expect him to take 80 minutes.

To paint 7 walls, he would nee 7x80 = 560 minutes. 10 people would do that 10 times faster, ie., 56 minutes.

I know puzzles like these always have a mindtrick. Did I miss anything?? ;-)

Write an algebraic expression to model the given context.Give your answer in simplest form. (please explain)A.) The original pri
babymother [125]

Answer:

The algebraic expression is (P-0.15p) = 0.85p

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to write an algebraic expression to model the situation at hand;

Original price p of an item less a 15% discount

What this mean is that we want to remove a 15% discount from the original price P

That term ‘less’ means we are subtracting

so 15% of p would be;

15/100 * p = 15p/100 = 0.15p

So 15% of P less P is (P-0.15P) = 0.85P

(x^2−1)(3x−4)(3x+4) what is the product
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

9x^4-25x^2+16

Step-by-step explanation:

(x^2−1)(3x−4)(3x+4)=(*)

(x^2−1)((3x)^2−4^2) =

(x^2 - 1)(9x^2-16)=

x^2*9x^2 - x^2*16 - 1*9x^2 +16=

9x^4-16x^2-9x^2+16=

9x^4-25x^2+16

(*) (A-B)(A+B) =A^2 - B^2
