2024 + 0.17(2024) = 2368.08

2368.08 - 0.15(2368.08) = 2012.868

The final amount is 2012.868.

Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:

2012.9

Step-by-step explanation:

17% increase of 2024

17/100 × 2024

34408/100

344.08

344.08+2024

2368.08

15% of 2368.08

15/100 ×2368.08

0.15×2368.08

355.212

Since it's a decrease

2368.08-355.212

=2012.868~2012.9

So the final answer is 2012.9

Which of the following would best be solved using factoring the difference of squares? 2² + 3x - 10 = 0 O 3r² + 12x = 8 2³ +52²

IgorC [24]

Given: Different equations

To Determine: Which would be best solved using difference of two squares

Solution

The factorization of a difference of two squares is given below

$a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)$

Let us examine each of the given equation

$\begin{gathered} x^2+3x-10=0 \\ x^2-2x+5x-10=0 \\ x(x-2)+5(x-2)=0 \\ (x-2)(x+5)=0 \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} 3x^2+12x=8 \\ 3x^2+12x-8=0 \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} x^3+5x^2-9x-45=0 \\ x^2(x+5)-9(x+5)=0 \\ (x+5)(x^2-9)=0 \\ x^2-9=x^2-3^2=(x+3)(x-3) \\ Therefore \\ (x+5)(x+3)(x-3)=0 \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} x^2-25=0 \\ x^2-5^2=0 \\ (x+5)(x-5)=0 \end{gathered}$

From the above,

$\begin{gathered} x^3+5x^2-9x-45=0 \\ AND \\ x^2-25=0 \end{gathered}$

The two equation above can be solved by difference of two square, but the equation below is the easiest solved using differnce of two square

x² - 25 = 0

Which algebraic expression represents “the class was divided into four equal groups”?

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

$\frac{w}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The algebraic expression states that

"The class we divided into four equal groups."

We have our expression right at the word of "divided", therefore the answer would be a division problem.

w over 4 fits this because it fits the expression, w - class and 4 - amount of groups.

4 + w - Would be the class added four groups

4w - The class multiplies four more groups

4 - w - Four groups was taken from the class

Probability can be calculated using the formula

AveGali [126]

It really depends on the situation as probability depends on logic more than simple mathematical equations. However you must keep in mind a few principles:
1- P = number of possible outcomes of the event / total outcomes
2- P always less than or equal to 1.
3- For independent events A and B to occur simultaneously, P= P(A) x P(B)

You can send me the question you’re stuck at for further help.
